Golf on TV

Watched a lot of the matchplay, got SO tired of hearing that 3-down is worse than 2-down, that this put is a must-make, that there are x holes to go, that matchplay is a different game.

No, it isn't, at least not for me. When I'm playing in a stroke-play tournament, I'm playing two matches on each hole; one vs. bogey, one vs. par. Losing a hole to par is acceptable; losing one to bogey is not.
