3M Open is following the two rookies, been watching for 45 minutes and they’ve shown only 2 shots by Bryson while showing every shot of the rookies. Perhaps because he has had negative comments about the PGA as an organization??

His pairing has received a warning about pace of play, so maybe that's why.

10. At the start of the year, DeChambeau putted side-saddle. And the 23-year-old ran into some trouble with the USGA after they ruled one of his side-saddle putters non-conforming: "They’re not a good organization, and you can quote me on that. I’m part of their family and as family it’s very frustrating to see them stunt the growth of the game.” He later apologized.

I suspect you are right. Also since turning over to the network he’s been shown as much as any of the others. My comment was premature

Listened to a Feherty podcast this weekend that had Dechambeau.  He said if he is playing with very slow players he will purposely do things to get them put on the clock (hang out in the porta john,etc).  Said once they get put on the clock it forces them to play at his pace.

I think you mean Koepka.

Dechambeau is glacially slow.

You are correct, it was Koepka.  Got them mixed up, though Dechambeau's interview was interesting as well.

Off-topic, but seems like a good place to ask this question.  I have noticed that Frenchie changes clubs a lot....almost to the point where he "may" be actually intentionally holding the wrong club when it comes time for him to play, just so he can then change clubs......my question is this: 

Does the act of changing clubs while it is your turn to play impact the time you actually have to play under the rules (even if just laying groundwork for the argument the change of club is evidence that the conditions/decision was difficult and should be taken into account for purposes of timing)?

Thanks in advance.....

No.

Plus why did you call him "Frenchie"?

Thanks.....no reason, other than his name and me being too lazy to type it out

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.

      Of course there's not a simple or knowable answer here. But the whole Caitlin Clark phenomenon is a nice example IMO. Suddenly there was wall to wall media coverage and national attention and... the women's tournament got similar ratings to the men's and much higher ratings than the men in the final four. With every indication that there will be some portion of the uptick that remains going forward. And there's the whole element that Sue Bird brought up. That basketball needed a pretty enough white superstar guard. One who looks like the "cute little white girls" that describes most of the soccer USWNT that's been able to achieve much higher popularity than any version of women's basketball, which is dominated by black players and none of any race who could be described as little... I do think women's sports are in a good place to start taking off more though. It's really only in the coming 5-10 years that the majority of girls will start to come of age with post Title IX grandmothers (as in their grandmothers were allowed to be serious athletes). I don't follow men's or women's basketball much, but in golf for sure the women's tour has gotten much deeper over the past 20 years and only looks to keep going in that direction. I've heard the same about women's basketball. And the patriarchal attitudes that socialized girls out of sports and everyone out of women's sports fandom aren't gone but have def diminished.
