Faldo, Nantz & Buck Prevail In Golf Digest TV Survey!

I'm not entirely sure what to make of the results given that Joe Buck and Greg Norman were runaway winners in their respective divisions for least liked while Fox didn't register on the least favorite network voting (TNT excelled despite doing only one event a year and mostly with CBS production values, so go figure). This may come as a blow to Norman, who continues to suggest folks were paid to Tweet negative comments about Fox's U.S. Open coverage.

Alex Myers sums up the results and makes some comparisons to the last survey, where it was all about Tiger Woods. This time around Nick Faldo and Jim Nantz cruised to victories, while there was little dislike for CBS and Golf Channel, but a real hatred for TNT. And Joe and Greg.

In fact, Buck and Norman were named least favorite in their respective categories, with Buck widely criticized for a perceived lack of golf knowledge and Norman getting knocked for a surplus of arrogance. It wasn't quite a Brent Musburger level of disdain—the former ABC golf announcer received 43 percent of our worst-host vote in 1996—but 39 percent named Buck their least favorite, and a quarter of those polled gave the Shark a biting review.

There was good news for Fox...they weren't included in the best/worst network balloting!
