Farmers Open Ratings Slide Without Tiger

From Tod Leonard's post-Farmers Insurance Open notes:

The ratings were the worst in the past five years for both Saturday and Sunday.

Saturday’s overnight Nielsen national rating on CBS was 1.1, or nearly half of last year’s 2.0. The Sunday rating was 2.0, down from 3.5 last year when Mickelson battled eventual champion Bubba Watson down the stretch.
