During such a hectic time of the season in the world of golf, it can be quite easy to miss out on a story here or there. Several concurrent events require more eyeballs than a human has at their disposal and more screens that most households have available.
Last weekend was a prime example of the golf fan seeing their attention split across too many tournaments in one go.
