I miss the old live scoring, with the swooshing sound, and the different pictures they used to use.
Halcyon days of live scoring.

Go Mags!
I'd like to dedicate his final appearance to Neal Foulds who claimed he was a slow player last week. 1 big 4 letter word followed by a 3 letter word to you

Foulds was never particularly speedy himself.
When Maguire gets on a break he is quite fluent. Not fast, but not slow either.

True.
Cant comment on Foulds... too young .
A big

Itll be Angles on Eurosport all the way for me at the Worlds
you missed out on Foulds Davie Mac, a solid player in his day but just lacked that something t0 be a totally top performer. Id liken him to modern day Carter actually in a way, not in a being a runt way though.
Dunno what it was but i always tagged Foulds in the same bracket with Hallet back in the day.

No commentary is better than having Taylor waffling on ad infinitum about boring golf and boring golf players, who I have never heard of.
If I hear Taylor talk about someone's golf handicap one more time, I will personally make sure he gets a real handicap to live with!!

They are both runts. They should be banished from any commentary box.
