David Feherty and Bare Lies

August 6, 2006

During the Buick Open telecast, I just heard David Feherty say “Tiger’s on a bare lie that would scare the crap out of the average player.”

Feherty should get out more. We bogey golfers see a lot of those kind of bare lies on the municipal and public courses that we play. In fact, at many of the courses that I play bare—or nearly bare lies are the rule, rather than the exception in the “rough.”  It’s only on the PGA tour that you see living room carpet coverage across the entire course.

  • I think it’s in the announcer’s contract that he or she has to make every shot Tiger has the most spectacular one ever seen, at least since the shot prior to the current one they are describing.  So, if they have to describe the lie as nasty, or one of Feherty’s favorite words “Skanky” just to make the result better, then they do it.
