I know this is well ahead of schedule but I had a question about it. I've never seen the Tour Championship before, but what is the coverage of it like?

I would imagine it wouldn't be very difficult at all to show EVERY SINGLE SHOT of EVERY SINGLE PLAYER (there's only 30). I'm betting they don't do this but they easily could.

15 groups of two. Only showing the first few seconds before the shot is struck (pre shot waggle).

This would be so great to see. To see the worst shots and the best, and all those in between from the top 30 golfers in the world for that particular year (as big as it gets, really. Majors could be considered bigger and harder to win due to the much larger field, but getting to the Tour Championship isn't easy and really proves who is the most consistent, not just the best for 1 tournament).

Every, single, shot.

What's the coverage like for real though?

Yeah but that doesn't mean they have to show Tiger and Phil walking around for 30 seconds before and after their shot. If they want to put more of a premium on Tiger and Phil...show all of there shots like usual but also show everyone elses.

Of course, there shots would be replayed first after the commercial break..but I wish they would show everyone and all their shots

I'm sure almost everyone will be in contention though.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
