For those wondering what might be 13 years from now with Rory in comparison to Tiger. I think Woods was 21 when he won his first major.

Rory did work!

The results are about what I expected- it was great to watch.

 

Television took over on the last hole and when the on-course officials began hurrying everyone, I knew Phil and Rickie had no shot. There was something just a little screwed up with the finish.

Meh, idk... Phil didn't seem super happy that they let Rory's group play up, esp on the 2nd shot, as that's usually the players discretion, but he did have the good grace to let it go in his post play interview...

 

Rory was also very gracious in thanking them for it.

 

Phil had a shot there at the end and very nearly holed that chip... man what an ending and playoff that would have been.

 

I was just tickled that three good guys were in it right to the end.

Rickie said that he and Phil wanted to have a chance to put some pressure on Rory on the final hole, but really didn't get the chance, but he and Phil were not upset because Rory was playing so well.

 

Looks like we were not the only ones intrigued by the match.

 

 

With the PGA Championship running long, CBS shuffled its schedule around on Sunday. Unforgettable and Reckless were moved to the front of primetime and pre-empted across the country while the 60 Minutes repeat and Big Brother (1.7/5) were shifted to 9 PM and 10 PM respectively on the East Coast. All of which means, while BB was down 15% from its 8 PM Adults 18-49 result of last week, CBS’s ratings are all over the map, extremely tentative and essentially lacking any comparison to its August 3 ratings. Having said that, yesterday’s coverage of the final round of the golf tournament did see a 36% rise in metered market ratings over last year. With no Tiger Woods among the last round and Rory McIlroy’s dramatic win, the 3 PM – 9 PM PGA Championship earned a 6.0/13 in household ratings – that’s the best the golf coverage has done since the 7.5/17 result of 2007. From 7 PM to 9 PM, the PGA Championship final round got a 2.4/8 among Adults 18-49 in preliminary ratings. Added all up, CBS won the night with a 2.0/7 rating and 9.02 million viewers.
