Paul Azinger working the Open

[trickyric67]

I realize this is not a swing topic but I had to share.
I am watching the Open coverage and as a Huge Tom Watson fan I feel like I am 10 years old again! Anyway, as I am watching the talking heads try to say something clever along comes Paul Azinger with one of the dumbest comments ever "Tom is in the position he wants to be in after 3 rounds of the Open", Duh? doesn't every player want to be in the lead?
is there a player that "wants" to be a few shots back?
While I realize all the bobble heads like to think someone is more comfortable coming from behind, trust me.....every proffesional who is not insane wants to be out front as far as they can get.
great observation Paul.

Easy to be an armchair critic. Live commentary is not easy, and not all comments will be excellent.

I like Azinger and Tirico, I think they do a great job. I'd also say that Zinger knows what he's talking about, he's been there before and I think brings good perspective.

I wasn't commenting on Azinger the player, i was commenting on the comentator.
and for the record I do love Johnny too.
sometimes some insight like maybe, "Tom is in a perfect position for the very windy day because he has had great success in these conditions or how he has held the jug before and none of the others on the leaderboard have might give him the experiance edge, but anyone could come up with he likes to be in the lead.....
