Is that the leaderboard live clips,  when you expand a player? Haven't watched them much. How long after a shot are the clips available?
Just have had some brief glances during these days. What you say is also kind of the downside. With no spectators and no commentators, the shots are pretty eerie experiences. All you hear are the sounds of the golf shots. 

Kind of. There is a stream where you can pick favorite players, and they will show you every shot by those players. So it's kind of like watching all of the leaderboard live clips in order.

 

And I think not hearing someone telling me what I'm seeing is absolutely a feature.

Why did they not put the groups in the normal order by score? The players that had to finish Round 1 in the morning yesterday went right back out to start their second rounds. Seems to be a bit of an advantage for the guys closer to the lead who are starting earlier when the course is still softer. Also means much less of those guys when CBS finally comes on the air, and more live golf from guys at even par. Doesn’t make sense to me.

The groups farther from the lead are starting on the back and you’d prefer not to do that if you are in contention

They are doing split tees and 3somes to make sure they finish today. So they are sending them out in order of score, but the bottom half of the field is going off of #10.

I can kind of agree. But I miss spectator reactions.

I would agree with that. I find myself not really caring much about any sports, and I think this is why.

What the purpose of having both trackman and the CG2?  Data validation 
 

[Holy Moses]

Any chance Horschel goes back with Ping as a sponsor?

 Watching College GameDay at The Masters is the the best combination in sports!

Tigers short game belongs in the louvre

He should have made birdies at two, debatable on three, tee to green is really good these days

That's the biggest difference in Tiger this week vs the rest of the year. His short game looks world class once again.

[bscinstnct]

BK be like,

 

You even lift, Bryson?

[miamistomp]

 BK looks good 

[Christosterone]

A little off topic: Billy Horschel has looked the exact same age since 2007...

sidebar convo (don't want to start a new thread) - what's on the menu for this Sat for Masters watching?  Doing some wings up in the air fryer for lunch then full on loaded burgers and fries for an early dinner - and some bourbon

One actually tracks the ballflight and another has an algorithm to calculate distance. Think the GC is more reliable for club data and trackman actual distances and spin rates. But yes, agree seems a bit much.

Go on Phil chase it down and wack it back up the hill before it stops moving

[RainShadow]

Greens a little different today, Eh?

 

[jdl]

9 guys tied at 9 under.

[orbless]

I thought Figjam was going to go US Open 2018 on that putt.

[Christosterone]

This is kinda amazing

 

 

[the bishop]

15 players either on the lead or within 2 shots

DJ!

In the eerie silence you can hear the comments from caddies and players. Someone said ".. ridiculous" after Rory´s drive on 8

[gjunky]

Didn't read all 51 pages so not sure if its mentioned but I'm really enjoying the coverage without fans. Watching the completion of the second round this morning on ESPN with my headphones on having coffee and you can hear the breezes going though the trees, just seems so peaceful. Also enjoying the course without all the grand stands as you can really get a sense of the layout. Cant say I've missed hearing mash potatoes or Baba Booey on every tee shot.

 

With all that said they will be missed on the back nine at the end of the day on Sunday...
