The Open 2016 - TV Coverage

Sorry, Hank, but I was hoping Monty would make the cut so I didn't have to listen to him erm, erm, uh, erm, uh talking drivel all weekend. I cannot stand the man.

I absolutely agree, top class player in his day and wish he'd won a major but I can't stand him as a commentator or for his attitude on the course

erm erm, he would tell you (with his eyes closed) that he's won 3 majors! 😉

Why are you all talking like he's missed the cut?

The APP has the cut at 3 over at the moment - so fingers crossed it drifts out one more

Has it finished already..............did all the others walk in...............still 4 hours of daylight left.

Which is why I asked why people were already talking like he'd missed the cut.

Totally agree. Shame really coz when he is being interviewed on a human level, one to one, he comes across a nice guy. Really impressed with Poulter again today.

He hasn't, it's +4 so he's in 👍

Seems Mickleson had a go at a cameraman today - said he was "invading his personal space and affecting his golf "

Just watching the BBC highlights - nice and simple , hushed tones in the commentary , no thrills and of course Ken Brown

You really have got a lot of love for all things BBC haven't you Phil.
Why is it that you take any negatives towards it so personal?

What's your definition of trolling, someone's post or opinion? Hey, he could keep his clothing business here in the UK? Maybe he would have to be prepared to make less money ... But then again maybe China has better thread? What do you think?

For the record, he's no Peter Alliss but I think that Poulter's doing quite a god job :thup:

You have a go in every post (mostly at someone english), and i think its just to try and cause a stir and be controversial.

Is Ian Poulters company the only one to use a different country to the uk?

Yet you decide to bring it up to have a pop at another english person (it was westwood earlier)

C for effort you must try harder

Love the weather reports and in particular the wind direction gizmo. It is however nothing more than the usual and that half wit Dougherty (is he English?) makes it sound like its hurricane like, what a knob 🙄

Thank goodness that they're popping in occasional reports from Coltart, he knows what Links golf is.

Ha Ha Ha, Just a tad to obvious

Some of you girls get a complex on here, we are all just one big happy golfing family 😉

Having attended a day with Nick Dougherty at Clarkes Golf in Rainford, i can state he is far from a half wit and he's an absolute gent.

That lad Danny Willett ain't half making Links golf look hard

Yeah I could take some of that back but he's certainly not good enough to do what he' trying to explain, someone needs to remind him that he can't cut the mustard!

How about that Henni Zuel when she's on the ladies golf, she can't break 90 (another failure) and she's sitting on a couch talking golf! She can't play golf so how did she get the gig?

Poor preparation, someone should tap him on the shoulder and remind him that he's on a real golf course, it's not the play station.

 

[bluewolf]

The American "on course" commentators on the Golf Channel sound like they've never seen a links course before!! The guy was incredulous that there was a burn across the fairway on a Par 5... 😂

Lol.... having played Links golf a lot I know that yesterday & today are to be expected & you need to be able to adjust your game to suit the conditions. Danny and a few others are struggling to do this and its making bad viewing
