Bashing coverage teams has become common practice for fans, no matter the sport in question. That includes golf, which is coming off a particularly brutal showing at the PGA Championship, one that featured mistaken names, an excessive amount of commercials and missed action.
However, the viewer is usually in good hands when it comes to the presentation of the European Tour. No matter your side of the pond, the respective networks employ knowledgeable commentators and a spartan game plan that eliminates the bells and whistles to focus on, you know, golf. The European Tour knows its audience, and caters to them as such.
Of course, no one is immune to mistakes, evidenced in this accidental F-bomb during the Nordea Masters:

At least, we think it's accidental. European Tour CEO Keith Pelley does like to think outside the box. The first rule in broadcast journalism is to tell the people what they don't know, and in a colorful light. On that front, mission accomplished.
