    What about day 3?

    Let’s be honest no one gives a s**t about women’s golf and it’s ridiculous that they have to wait for the women to finish before they start showing the PGA tour. They could broadcast women’s golf for eternity and cancel the men’s game forever and I still wouldn’t watch it.

    If you bother read it properly before losing your head the men’s is on before the women as they are in California

    I've actually started watching the woman's golf. Some of them are very good players.

    If you read my post I was talking about day 3. On Sky they were showing the women’s golf last night until 7 when the leaders of the Houston were out on the course.

    I think it was already discussed on Friday that Sky have to show whatever they’re showing in the US, and there seems to be some reason why women’s golf is being forced on us, as they won’t broadcast both simultaneously because they feel the need to pedal the women’s game.

    Ok, it’s not actually being forced on us because we can turn it off, but I think it’s anticompetitive. If the women’s game is good enough then they’ll have lots of people watching even if the men’s event is available simultaneously and they won’t need to try to get viewers just waiting for coverage of the PGA.

    I'll be watching the women's golf instead of the Houston open.

    I find it better to watch for tips etc as our game is closer to the women's than the different game the men are playing.

    I read it as tongue in cheek and laughed but there'll probably be a march in O'Connell Street later in protest. :)

    It is interesting to watch some slip of a woman blast the ball 280 down the fairway then spin it to within a couple of feet from the hole.

    I think this tournament is a major for the women which is why it's getting such coverage.

    Day 3 was on sky sports golf as you’d probably guess.

    Sure why not just stick all golf tournaments on sky sports mix or the ones you prefer.

    Sky had the early starters in women’s. Then went to pga and back to lpga. If you wanted to watch the feature groups then press red or use the app.

    The coverage for normal tv was the same as another other week but let’s not get to upset. Have an Easter egg

    Not sure if anyone has been watching this LPGA major final round and playoff. But if you don't like this you probably don't like golf. Its been sensational!

    Watched the end of the playoff. They were playing approach shots in darkness to a floodlit green! Still 2 of them left.
