I love to watch golf and I still do watch the weekend tournaments. What shuts me completely down during a broadcast is when the announcers make a big deal of a pop-up screen with the projected position in the Fed X cup after a golfer completes a hole.....WHO CARES ???? I mean Kenny Perry has just completed hole # 7, he's projected now to be at the 63rd position. Johnny Miller and Dan Hicks are acting like they know what's going on but since they don't explain why they're projecting somebody in the middle of a round, does it matter? I have no clue what they're talking about and I think the general public doesn't know as well. I believe it’s a total marketing gimmick, couldn’t care less who wins and with how much money.
