      Not good Charlie.

      "An average of 8.1 percent of households in the top 56 U.S. TV markets tuned in to watch Bubba Watson outlast Louis Oosthuizen in a dramatic, sudden-death playoff, CBS spokesperson Jerry Caraccioli told Bloomberg.

      That’s a 22 percent drop from the 10.4 ratings of a year ago, when Woods put on a late charge but fell short of 2011 Masters winner Charl Schwartzel."

      Perhaps it was because the Masters was played on Easter or perhaps it was because Tiger was out of contention.

      Probably the later.

      Golf=Tiger.

      How does Charlie Rose show such a mastery in so many subjects? How does he succeed in asking the questions which the expert or professional in the subject would themselves have asked? How does he have enthusiasm for so many different subjects?

      This interview was outstanding. I think how much my late Uncle Jack Zeibert who so loved the game of golf, would have enjoyed it. Nantz is a true professional, an excellent storyteller. Of course he is a promoter of his own business. Golf is not going to conquer the masses in the favelas of the world very soon. It is a sport of the 'haves' even though an occasional star may come from a financially poor background. Korea, England, Northern Ireland, Australia are not after all the whole of the world.

      Nantz gave an up-to- date picture of the golf - scene, its likely star newcomers. He also explained things about the game at Augusta, including the special situation of the greens which were interesting. His analysis of the Tiger Woods situation was also comprehensive, though give an ironic tail when Nantz at the end claimed to know all about what the golfers were doing at Augusta.

      Tiger, Tiger, TIGER!

      It should have been promoted as two dudes talk about Tiger.

      Golf=Tiger.
