It really makes for bad TV if you're a golfer or golfing fan. The one thing I've disliked about his time on the tour is the amount of time spent covering how he's doing when there's a lot of good golf going on with others playing in the same event(s).
If he's in contention, that's one thing. When he's 15 strokes back? I don't want to see him. I want to see what the leaders are doing.
