Live sports, the perfect opportunity to utilize all the technology available to us: USA Network/CBS for coverage as they want to describe it to you, broadband, with scoreboard updates and video of certain holes including Amen Corner, mobile to keep us updated while we rush to get home to get more news on our favorite players. There is radio to hear the coverage, interactive features online, and who knows how many blogs and analysis with predictions on who will win.
