    Their latest penchant for close-ups of the golf ball on long putts, so that you can't see where the hole is, meaning you have no idea until after the golf ball stops whether the putt is going in or 10 yards past.

    I thought the method whereby they only had one camera on a hole located behind said golfer and made sure that when the golfer took the putt the only idea you had as to whether it had gone in or missed was the groans or otherwise of the crowd.

    Yeah that's awesome.
    They always manage to have the camera behind the player so you can't see the ball.
    Genius.
