Time-out issues

Video and audio feeds time out frequently. Love the coverage though!

Not much more to add to the other 5 Star reviews as all it would be is redundant! Simply bravo! 💪

Sad about minimum groups to watch

Not as good as Augusta, not as good as the U.S. Open. And the reason for that is because they’re only offering two showcases of groups and not even the leaders can be seen. I think that’s downright disgusting. I’m a huge Golf fan and severely disappointed and how they’ve handled this.

Took forever to get registered add to sign in. I’m still not sure if I’m in one club or not! Very cumbersome and slow — to difficult.

Limited viewing

Would be real nice to see the end of the tournament while traveling home after spending 4 days on the course. It is dreadful how hard media has made it to watch marquee events. They will eventually subscription us to death!

Best Coverage of any Major!

From the brilliantly planned and executed comms team, to the comprehensive resources and options to explore….. this app and production team should win an award. It is by far, the best coverage of any major championship. They use humor, analysis, play-by-play cheeky descriptions and connect directly with the audience through email, tweets etc on air. The Masters should take not about the accessibility and modern touch this championship takes!

Could be better.

Color selections and font chaos on each tab make this app almost unreadable and hard to use.

Thank you

I don’t want to update my phone and I was not able to watch them all three majors as year because I can’t watch it unless the app is able to work with my phone. Thank you so much for allowing those of us who don’t have the proper technology to still enjoy the golf.

Awesome Open!!

You all sure know how to put on a show over the pond!! Keep up the good work showing all the good content of behind the scenes.

Coverage

This years coverage is cheap, you get par 3, 2 feature groups, and range. Where is total coverage, oh ya this isn’t the Masters (best streaming coverage).

Great commentary and video

The video quality is excellent and I’m watching on an ipad. It is limited on what you can watch live which is unfortunate as there was very little on the leader Friday and Saturday. Should be one of the featured groups for sure.

The Open

Saturday has been wicked awesome.

Brilliant!!!

Brilliant work showcasing the old and new. Easy to navigate

Data Broker

To watch any of the marquee groups or live action on the app? Then you’ll be sharing your information with data brokers. Thank you very much ti the R&A! Me… I won’t be watching.

Well designed but limited live feeds

Championship Sunday and the live feeds (in the US) only follow some middle of the pack players and a par 3 camera. The leaders are on the course, but you won’t get to see them unless they’re on a par 3. Add a broadcast channel to fix this large hole in coverage.

Can’t look at it

I enjoyed this app last year, and it seems very powerful and should be useful- but the black and yellow of the leaderboard page is so ugly as to be unusable. Using the PGA app for leaderboard.

Pathetic

Whats the number one use of an app like this? The LEADERBOARD. Which is hard to locate - no tab for…come on!

buggy

this app is so buggy this year. scorecards sometimes won’t refresh, video won’t work right….trying to cram too many features and messing up the basics.
