Message: [QUOTE="Huskee11, post: 2550681, member: 7171"] That's how it was for over a decade until around 2008. Their ratings were way higher when he was playing, especially if he was contending. So they are going back to that formula. Also worth noting that a lot of big names were not there and the only big name at the top was Jason Day. There is so much great young talent in the game today, I hope it doesn't get marginalized by the Tiger watch. But if he actually does get to the point where he can compete for titles, especially majors, a big if, then the networks will make it all about Tiger. This weekend it was much about him when he was middle of the pack! He expands the viewer base like no one else. His short game saved him. He can still bomb it but he was never the most accurate off the tee and he was spraying it, I think they said he hit 19 fairways total. [/QUOTE]
