I selfishly wanted DeChambeau to do better. He uses single length clubs, I sell single length clubs...We always have a good week after one of the Majors, expecting a busy week with golfers wanting what the winner plays with...

I used to love it when you could listen to Peter Alliss and Ken Brown etc. I can't stand the Sky lot.
I can't stand the constant fawning over the course, the tournament, the history (as the newest of all four majors), and the skipping over the racism, sexism, etc.

Faldo isn't even Poundland Alliss or Brown. More like charity shop, or even car boot! Great golfer, boring commentator.
I am going to beg to differ here. I think he is a brilliant commentator at Augusta because he explains the more technical aspects really well. Allis was more about the witty one liners. Faldo is more of a golf geek’s comms I think. He knows Augusta better than almost anyone and kept calling it perfectly.

I can’t stand Paul maginley. All he says is “one of the best ball strikers on tour” about everyone. Butch H says they are all “great kids”.

Yep, I get that about Faldo – and he's earned that right. I think, for me, it's not always WHAT he says, it's the WAY he says it. And when. Sometimes less is more. IMO, like.

A bit of an anti-climatic Masters in all honesty. Desperately sad to see Tiger struggling so badly in the final 2 rounds, his body is not up to 72 holes over 4 days, and he deserves better for all he has done for the game of golf.
