Agreed, with one caveat: if you're watching golf, you don't care what Whit or Dan or Terry has to say. You are waiting for Johnny or Sir Nick or Zinger. We are the bus drivers and they are the delivery trucks.

Former @GolfChannel producer @khhauthor had an advanced metric for laying out for player-caddie convos: he would whisper "shh-shh-shh" into our headsets, or sometimes "shut the f**k up" CC: @JerryFoltzGolf @Kstupples

I hear this point a lot about golf coverage. And I'm not just touting this because it's my main employer, but @PGATOURLIVE marquee/featured groups streams do this from the opening shot on Thursday to the final shot Sunday any given week. We lay out for every player-caddie convo.

Trade! Rory McIlroy and @commongolf have acquired Shane Lowry from The Bay Golf Club. The Bay gets Boston's fourth spot in the upcoming roster formation process (essentially draft order), one pick over the coming three seasons, and "commercial considerations." TGL rosters are expanding to five players in 2027. First ever trade in TGL.
