One complaint about the weird final day coverage. They chose to start the coverage on the 15th hole, which tipped off right away that there was going to be a playoff (although I still wasn't sure So Yeon would be in that playoff). Then there was a rain delay, and they SHOWED THE SAME THREE HOLES they had just shown. They must have been covering the tournament earlier anticipating they would start the tape delay around hole 9, why not show us the coverage they didn't show before? Then, the playoff ends about an hour early, and they spend like half an hour TALKING. Why not show some of the lost coverage at that point? I would have rather watched the golf, thank you vey much. I have a streaming box and just by chance I started searching and I found the coverage. Didn't start looking till the leaders were about the 5th hole.

I’m pretty sure when the broadcast started they were showing it live, thus the hole 15 start. Why they didn’t show earlier highlights during rain delay??? Too bad the start had to be bumped up. It would have been great to have 3 hours covered of that tournament.

She looked perfectly healthy at Shop-Rite.
In Gee looked healthy too, but I know she wasn't right. It isn't a healthy In Gee when she averaged 246 yards off the tee. Hopefully, she's recovered and will play well the next 3 days.
In Gee broke her driver on the first day. Her coach said there was a rattle inside. Ping overnighted a new driver, and she received it just before her morning round on Friday.

It would have been great to have 3 hours covered of that tournament. Tellingly, they didn't have the little 'Live' in the corner of the screen (I looked for it). And if that was live, what were they thinking? If there hadn't been a playoff, they were going to show 45 minutes of live coverage and two hours of talking? Also, I saw a bunch of highlights of the round on Golf Channel later that night, including Ryu's bogey on 13, which was another silly mistake. So they were filming earlier. I think what happened is that they tournament wasn't over when the coverage started, so they knew it would have a playoff but not how long the playoff would be. So, they guessed and started showing at the 15th. As the broadcast continued, they realized they would have extra time and so prepared to pad the end.

So, I watched the coverage again last night on Tivo, and I did see the Live sign. Unlike on Golf Channel, they only flashed it occasionally, then hid it, although they did hold it during those times when the commercials were playing and they showed the little window with the golfers (no wonder I don't remember that; I fast forwarded through those cause I couldn't follow what was happening in those little windows).
Anyways, I guess it was live. Although I prefer my Majors live, they probably should have considered delaying it to show more coverage, given the earlier tee times?
