Why is Beth Daniel on the air?

[golf_junkie27]

Beth Daniel is a horrendous announcer. Please GC, if you want viewers, get her off the air. She has not been right, once, since I've been listening. Some examples:

1) Annika is putting for bird. She says "I don't think Annika sees the break. This is going to be a tough putt." Annika procedes to drain it, center cup.

2) Christina Kim is putting for bogey. She says "Christina just bogeyed a hole. She's in danger of bogeying this hole, too." The putt was about five feet. Again, another putt that is drained, center cup.

3) Pressel is teeing off on a Par 3. She says "This is perfect. This shot is online." Ball barely lands on the green as is about 25 feet left of the flag.

She tries to be critical like Johnny Miller and fails. She's also not clever or funny like Nick Faldo. She's awful. I plead with you guys at GC. Don't make me mute the TV like I do when I'm watching Knick games and Clyde Frazier is announcing.

I'd even put up with Beth Daniels' commentary to have the Golf Channel back. It went off Sky TV a while back! I haven't seen any LPGA action in months!!!!!

Nobody is worse than the announcer on the Buffalo Sabres hockey games.

Agreed. Besides being inaccurate, she is duuuuuulllllll.

It appears that someone over at the LPGA is doing here a 'favor' for her contribution to the game, but they are just hurting themselves instead.

Definitely a step back in promoting their image of "These girls rock."

There has got to be some washed up, former pro that has a personality and some insight into the game that is not over 60 years old that they can tap.

That whole broadcast was annoying.

Brian Hammons - dumb and annoying
Dotty Pepper- annoying
Kay Cockerill - dumb and annoying
Beth Daniel - dumb and annoying


I was about ready to smash my LCD tv if i heard one of those 3 women say "shes just got to trust it" one more time. Makes golf sound like a relationship on the rocks. Stupid.

Hmmm. Has Nancy Lopez ever done TV commentary?
