Is it me or has Han Faldo lost something this year? It's not the same magic that had at ABC with Zing. Maybe he is doing too much golf with the GC and CBS schedules. Or maybe he is getting tired in his old age.<BR/><BR/>Regardless, I have been thoroughly disappointed in the GC coverage this year. I gave them a pass last year, but the chemistry in the booth is toxic, not positive for the viewer. Tilghman has to go, she is terrible.<BR/><BR/>Maybe GC's parent company (Comcast) could fork over a few extra bucks and get a real play-by-play announcer (Dan Hicks, Mike Tirico, etc.). During this ever important Tiger Run, we need strong support in the tower to keep people glued to the set when he is running away with tournaments. A 3.5 rating and 7 share is up 67% from last year, but is it sustainable if TW keeps dominating the field? A good group in the booth would mitigate any boredom that sets in the with the viewer base.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
