I informed her that someone has written something about someone that I can't stand to watch or listen to either - Jimmy Roberts. Gosh, I sure hope Santa got both of our letters! Ben,

While I was reading your Christmas wish list, my wife asked me why I was talking to my computer.

Gosh, I sure hope Santa got both of our letters!

One, i believe, is the broadcast everyone sees. One is on Amen Corner. The third is on 16 and 17. I'm not sure what the fourth is. Then, if you have an HD tv, there will be a constant leader board on the left. [/quote] I knew Santa would come through with something. Jeff H. said on December 29, 2008:

Save it for the Olympics, it's only every 4 years! Great points on the Master! Why there isn't 18 holes coverage on Saturday and Sunday and at least 6 - 8 hours on Thursday and Friday defies common sense.

It allowed viewing of all groups and players not just the box office names as per standard coverage.
