Major shame on the PGA Of America.
It has sold us out. If you want to see the early rounds of the PGA Championship, you have to pay for it — you have to subscribe to “ESPN-Plus” a “subscription” service.
Seriously?
This is totally wrong.
Of course the PGA Of America is taking it on the chin, financially with no fans, no merchandise sales, no food and beer sales on site at Harding Park this week.
Then there’s the Ryder Cup postponement.
But did the PGA Of America have to do this to us?
Shame on them.
We’re sending Seth Waugh and his greedy band of underlings to the Dog House where the dogs will charge them if they want to watch the television show of their choice.
Bah-Humbug!!

I’m really against this as well.
Even if the membership is reasonable I avoid it for a couple of reasons:
1 It should fundamentally be free.
2 There are already countless hours of coverage. If I need more I’ll just watch some more lpga, euro tour, whatever this week.
3 Highlights and recaps cover tigers missed rounds and any must see shots, must see moments anyway.
4 I wouldn’t know how to get the coverage on my tv instead of my computer, and more importantly dvr it.
5 they are doing me a favor. I’ll watch every free minute. I’ll do it. I don’t care. Sometimes it can be a bit too much, so my family say. So thank you to espn and the pga of America’s for giving me time to do a few other things this week.
Really I don’t know why anyone would pay to be over saturated with golf on their computer screen. I’m just not into that.

Hopefully they learn it’s a mistake.
