Hi Dot, I was looking for the Bloomberg article which you posted about the PGA's announcement about watching a golf tournament on the internet but it wasn't there when I clicked on the link.

I am curious if the tournament will be live or just clips and videos. The LPGA tried "live webcasting" from the Michelob but had some problems with it.
