Phil is my hero, literally, met him numerous times and actually played in a pro-am with him in SD. I personally dislike pretty much all golf "commentators", including Mr. Miller. It is apparent that if you are not someone who spells his name like this: T-I-G-E-R-W-O-O-D-S, then you are nothing more than a duffer who gets lucky every once in awhile. And when Mr. Woods gets a lucky break it was due to his skill........heck he even admits it when he gets lucky, but according to the commentators it's all planned.......

Don't get me wrong, I love to watch Tiger and wish I could have even an ounce of his skill, and he is the best player ever, but if you make the cut at the pro level, you rate a little respect seeing as you are definitly in the 100th percentile of the world.

IMO Phil is the best chipper/feel around the green guy there is, yes his close range putting stinks but if I was in a best ball scramble there is only one person who is gonna be flopping it into a tight pin!

Plus he gets MAJOR props (just like Tiger and others) for playing through some VERY tough/emotional times. When someone you love faces the beast it's hard to concentrate. IMO I would just rather they get rid of the comentators and let me watch them play, their condescension and derision of all players gets on my nerves.

Sorry for the rant, just glad someone else noticed this! Now back to rainbows and ponies..............
