We all have announcers and colour commentators that we dislike or think do a bad job.
I have never liked Azinger and wish that he had not been able to move over from Fox when NBC got back the Open coverage. Now that NBC has 3 of the 4 majors plus Ryder Cup plus Solheim plus Olympics, I may suffer a brain injury if I have to listen to this clown much longer.
At the US Open, he repeatedly kept saying that different players on different holes were in 'the thickest rough on the course'. Not some of the thickest, or it's really thick in there, THE thickest.
Near the end of yesterdays telecast he kept going on and on about how Oosthazen would have the advantage as he was older and already had won an open and everyone else would have nerves, but not him. During the telecast today, Zinger is going on about how much the pressure has gotten to Louis. Then near the end of the first 9, Zinger is going on about how Louis needs to get it together as he is 38 and this may be his last chance and he knows it. Then near the end of the back nine, he is going on about how Louis will still have lots of opportunities. The man can't even remember what he was spouting off about less than 2 hours before.
I'd even prefer Strange or Wadkins to this fool.
