Whoever mentioned that they've changed the coverage lately to the point where you can't really follow the true scope of the field is right. I've especially noticed it this summer, where it feels like you're just watching a couple guys golf and everyone else is just a stat.
I get what they're going for, but it doesn't do much for the tournaments themselves and fails to get casual viewers invested in anyone but the leaders, which is what you want for when the up and comers get into the lead.
You want viewers saying "Oh wow, good for him, I've watched him play some really good golf with problems X, Y and Z to work on, now he's put it together, awesome!!", instead of "meh, don't know this guy, which the heavy hitters were here to make this more legit".
