Golf fans crush CBS broadcast for screwing up on the most important shot of PGA

Brooks Koepka’s second shot on the final hole of the PGA Championship on Sunday was arguably the biggest shot of the tournament.

And the CBS broadcast totally messed it up.

Instead of sticking with Koepka and breaking down his shot, which was a very difficult one from an ugly lie in front of a bunker that could have gone anywhere and could have cost him his two-stroke lead, CBS cut to a post-round interview with Dustin Johnson, who was talking about his round while they showed Koepka’s shot.

Which was just terrible timing and angered fans watching the drama unfold on TV.

Koepka chipped out to the fairway and then wrapped up his fourth major victory with an incredible par, but fans were angry over the coverage on his second shot, and rightfully so. All of the focus should have been on that and not some interview that could have aired after.
