Ian Baker Finch offers a lot more as a comentator. He's always got trivia or golfing insight to share.
I'm watching the final round of the AT&T Classic and this tournament is a good opportunity for some of the guys who get overshadowed by the big names to get their day in the sun. Some of these guys, like Stephen Marino and Ryuji Imada miss cuts and you don't see them on the weekend. And here Imada is in contention for the win. There is talk about the Tour changing the cutline from top 70 and ties to something less in an effort to reduce playing time. Well, if they do that, then these guys like Imada won't have the chance to play enough rounds in a row to get their game into shape to finally win when a chance like this comes along. Reducing the cutline is just an attempt by the Tour to make the top guys even richer since the purse wouldn't be split between so many players. And of course they could then increase the number of precious fed ex cup points awarded to the winner of a tournament. I predict a "Tiger Woods has amassed more points than anyone in history" moment if this happens. The Tour will do anything to give Tiger Woods a trophy or award.
