The Masters is in a different category, but CBS's golf coverage stinks. They went all-in with trackman because their television contract for the PGA Championship is up next year I believe. I'm a big fan of Amanda Balionis and hope they use her more going forward.

Man that commercial with Dustin Johnson taking about the FedEx Cup is really something.

They should think about just adding the international guys to the European Ryder cup team. They won't do it but the President's cup seems like it will rarely be competitive like it hasn't been since it started.

Mickelson/Kisner come back to halve their match (Phil had an 8 footer on 18 to win the match but missed). 3.5-1.5 US after Day 1

The wind was ridiculous. Horrible shots by both sides, though many more by the Internationals.
