Cameraman probably has some pretty good dance moves.

 

No need for him to be standing that close with that kind of hardware. I would've had him move...of course I'm a shank wizard so I'd been more concerned.

Sure there is. If he backs up, he won't have the downward angle that he has standing right there.

It's pretty rare for a guy to shank it through your legs.

The impressive part is how little the camera moved.  I'm sure they have some sort of image stabilization, but still...he barely flinched.

Again. Good angle yes. A need? No.

If you wanna define "need" that way, then there's really no "need" for any cameras to film the event at all.

He had to be there to get the angle that he wanted.

Most likely it is related to my own golfing ability. I would be freaked out by that many people being that close to the target line. There are some instances were the stance isn't that good, the lie isn't that good. I am just thinking, that ball is going to take someone out. I don't think I ever seen it happen before or heard of it happening, were a person was hit by a ball who was standing with in 50 yards of the golfer. 

Scratch that, maybe Rory when he had a rock in front of his ball and nailed almost (or did) hit a camera man. The camera man fell into a jumping choy plant. I think that ball was deflected way off line though.

If the golfer doesn't mind the people there then I have no issue with it. The golfer has the right to have the people moved back further.

This was a great event to watch. I am enjoying watching golf more than I ever have. The mix of guys like Spieth, Thomas, DJ, Hideki, etc. make it all very interesting.

That's a great moment caught there. I like Fil more and more as he gets older.
