I watched Tiger Woods take his 13th major this weekend at the PGA Championship played in Tulsa. I enjoy CBS coverage and I think they have a great team covering the analysis. I especially like the hiring of Nick Faldo into the coveted #2 position next to Jim Nantz in the 18th tower. I wasn't too fond of Lanny Wadkins in that spot over the last few years.
CBS also does well with its star roving reporter, David Feherty, covering the final group.
They also have Peter Kostis doing swing analysis - OK, not a bad thing.
They also have funny man Gary McCord traditionally stationed at the 16th tower. OK - fine.
They also have Peter Oosterhouse and his British accent stationed at the 17th tower. Very well then.
They also lured Ian Baker-Finch away from ABC. Maybe he hides in the 15th tower.
So far that makes 7 guys covering the broadcast. That is too many. How can anyone get a word in? But CBS went further for this major.
CBS covers The Master's every April and Augusta National Golf Club has banned CBS from using Gary McCord for its broadcast because of some comments he made on air some time back. So for the Masters, CBS brings in Verne Lundquist to take the 16th tower for McCord. For the PGA Championship, CBS had McCord AND Lundquist - that makes 8.
But CBS also lets their interview man, Bill Macatee, get a piece of the broadcast action also. That makes 9.
I could do without Macatee. Not a smooth voice. CBS makes their money having McCord and Feherty joke with each other with Kostis and Oosterhouse playing the straight men. Now they bring over Faldo and they have a sort of all-star team. Baker-Finch does a great job, but there is no room for him.
My suggestion: Put Baker-Finch, Lundquist, and Macatee on the bench and leave more air time for your high paid all-stars.
