I have been watching the Farmers for the last hour and have yet to see any coverage of David Toms....tied for 6th at -6 and -4 on the day. Yet I have had to endure watching Phil walk down the fairway at +2 and probably missing the cut. Also just watched at least a one minute recap of Jimmy Walkers day who is also -6.

David Toms gets less TV coverage than any other golfer of his stature.

Good question. I saw a couple of shots earlier in the coverage.

He started on the Back 9...very few cameras on the front, which is where he is now.

Toms hasnt done much lately. He top 20'd or 22nd at Sony I think. But he remains there Saturday and he will get coverage.

Tom doesn't "move the needle." Talking with the GC people here, they are only interested in golfers that are hot and that can draw viewers. Reality that we live in. More viewers is something they sell to advertisers. Advertisers mean more MONEY.

On Thursday, I had to watch 30 minutes of Tiger ride off the course and pack his shite up. Almost posted something on the golf channels Facebook. I was pissed!
