tee times don't match the TV schedule. Last tee time is at 9:30am and the golf channel coverage goes from 1:30-6:30pm...

will the tv coverage not be live?

 

There is bad weather slated for Thursday, they could be trying to get everyone out.

Yes tee times were moved up to 7:30 for Thursday and Friday because of expected bad weather.

Does anyone know when the bad weather is expected on Thursday and Friday? Wondering which tee times will have a better opportunity with respect to scoring conditions...

They Moved the tee times up to avoid the bad weather. Being a limited field, they will be done on thursday and Friday before the afternoon

People might think that course is boring. But playing it from the tips is a beast.

 

Doesn't make it less boring.

 

 

And the fact that a wgc event will be tape delayed coverage proves that golf channel is a joke. Move up tv coverage. Show live golf, not that hard.

 

 

There are most likely contractual obligations that prevent them from moving the Ladies British Open out of the morning slot.

I'm not sure about that. Did you see Glen Abbey last week?

 

Say what you might about the south course at Firestone, but it has a rich history of producing great champions. Rarely do nobodies win there.

 

I like Firestone. It is one of the few of that era I do like. Then again, I really like the back 9 at Glen Abbey too.

Henrik has slowly returned to form, did do good things at Royal Birkdale. And has won at Firestone before, might be a force.

But I would be more happy if Alex did present himself to the American golf scene. He has not been able to produce results over there yet, but why not now? Did well at The Open, have been consistent in Europe. Why not now?
