You SCAMMER.....and I thought I was a cheapo.

Hmmmm.....you're spending....$2000+ on monthly green fees and another $600 a month on craft beer...RV rentals, gas, etc,etc and you're shilling Peacock for $5....WTH.

Ok ok....I'd do the SAME THING.🤣

 

So how is the coverage?.....Foltzy running around with his cell phone filming & talking and Amy Rogers interviewing and filling in DEAD TIME.

 

Grant and Morgan are broadcasting from home in the pajamas. The on-course camera work and Jerry's commentary are fine.

 

There are no TV towers on the course, so every shot is from a handheld camera at eye level. A little unusual. 

 

The contrast is messed up. Everything is over exposed.

LMAO

Well....the PJ's would be an upgrade to some of Morgan's HORRENDOUS blouses she can wear in the booth.

 

I might be wrong....I think there was a chubby guy....Adam Barr??? who use to chime in the middle on the night from FLA to intro back on GC from a commercial break when GC had live coverage on the Asia Swings....I believe Stupples has done this too.

I watched a few minutes of the stream on LPGA.com and it was unwatchable. Too slow, sound was horrible.

We all know how slow the play can be when we watch the LPGA on TV.

Now we see this one hole stream with so much dead time....the majority of the time watching the players walking.

And with no other holes on coverage....we have the REALITY of seeing how SLOW PLAY really is...UGH.

 

It's not much better this afternoon with only two groups being covered. With no cameras in the towers, we get to see each group go through their routine on every hole. Glacial at times. 

 

[Argonne69]

Curious why a number of players who played last week took this week off. With a month break until Singapore, I figured they make the drive from Boca.

I'm fairly confident I found Morgan's fashion inspiration. The one and only Thelma Harper.

Millennial's are SOFT...they don't like to work.

[Argonne69]

Lol. It was Paige at home, and not Morgan. Strange, I didn't hear a single giggle. 🙃

 

[KBong]

NYC has saved some face with Angel now DFL.

 

Same old same old...Fassi POSING.

If Kupcho had any personality she'd be the one with the TM & AT&T endorsements...just sayin.

You sure about that?

It's 6pm EST.....I'm guessing you are on your 7th craft beer and roasting some wieners beside Bessie for dinner.

 

I think Paige was living in Phoenix when she got married years ago and GC might have rented her a condo in Orlando....but with all the GC cutbacks and Covid work from home....I think Paige might be back in Phoenix....doing a lot of work from home...ya never see her with Shane or Damon on Golf Today....I think both are working from Connecticut???

Yeah, Paige was in Phoenix.

What the hell happened to Angel Yin?

 

I had such high hopes for her..  🙁

She now belongs to the same club I'm a member of:

The Society of Chinese Golf POSERS.

 

We accept passports from many countries.

Vanity Caps NEED only APPLY for membership.

 

Angel is a gangsta who can't play anymore...no finesse.

In the past, she has played well in a major to bail out her year.

WD for Jessica Korda. FootJoy getting their money’s worth. 

 

I estimated earlier that the deal was worth $35 and 10 pairs of laces for Korda.

 

This WD has cost her two pairs of laces, but I hear her agent is negotiating to get one of them reinstated.

So you're telling me Jess's FJ endorsement is only worth 0.007% - 0.0035% of what @18majors estimates at $0.5M - $1M...just askin for a friend.

I know it happens....but Angel's been playing lousy this year like a 5 capper......she shot 81 today at just over 6400 yds with an est. 71/132 rating and driving it on avg of 274 on 2 holes.....she should be able to dismantle 6400+ yds with 274 yd drives.

 

I don't think the rough was that penal....4/14 fairways....she must be hitting it off the planet...I think she's need the Stealth if she's not playing it already.🤣

Is your current RV park right next to the interstate?  I just watched most of the 10 minute "highlight" package and definitely got Paigegiggled.

 

Not a fan at all of the 1 hole coverage.  Thought the video was tolerable but the audio was a wreck.

Maybe she should consider taking her driver out of her bag. Lol.

Not your usual leaderboard. With only two rounds to play this is a golden opportunity for a non-winner to grab their first victory. Marina?

LOL....I think Arg was busy BBQing his wieners and not paying attention.

Ya I looked at the Youtube highlights and heard GIGGLES Paige.

Doh! I guess that leaves Linnea, Maude-Aimee, and Yaeeun.

Hey, I'm a big fan of Morgan! I've even got to like her voice, which I thought was impossible when she first started with the team. 

 

As for the golf, I'm surprised Brooke isn't higher up the placings. Her putting is a LOT better than it was. Time for her to make a move. She's been a "teenage sensation" for years, but now she has to fight it out with the new heavyweights.

LPGA.com will stream par 3 #17 today; we'll see most players whom we didn't see yesterday.
