LG Skins game and the "Grand slam" TV Coverage

Part of the fun of watching the Skins Game is hearing the banter between the players and you just know that John Daly, Freddy Couples, Fred Funk, and Stephen Ames would have some fun. The players don't wear microphones at other PGA events.
Unfortunately, the commentators talked so much, that I couldn't hear what the players were saying. Surely the commentators wear headsets and realize we viewers want to hear what the players are saying.

Loved the remote controlled golf ball chasing John Daly on the putting green!

Grand Slam of golf. 4 players. Just four! Coverage in my area was tape delayed, by about 3 days. So how come the TV coverage showed 3 of the 4 players teeing off and went to commercials! The next shot was watching the 4th player hit his second shot.

These TV directors ought to take a lesson from the coverage of the LPGA ADT Championship. 8 players on the final day and the coverage was fabulous.
