Wednesday is always rehearsal day, a day where we iron the kinks out of the system and make sure everything works the way it is supposed to. This usually starts with a production meeting in the TV compound, which this week is based on the rifle range at the back of the fifth hole at NSWGC.
After this we head out to our positions to check coms, and to run through the hole flyovers in the commentary box. This year we've got Frank Nobilo out from the U.S. to join the team. Frank is a New Zealander ( we don't hold that against him) who was an outstanding player. His career was cut short by injury, and he now works full time on the Golf Channel doing Seniors Tour and PGA Tour events.
The broadcast begins tomorrow at 12pm, and we're on air until 5pm. After that there is a one hour review show on ONE HD, so it is going to be a very big day.
In the picture are Steve Herson (producer) talking to Leigh Diffey in the foreground, with Frank Nobilo, Steve Wood (producer) and Jay Townsend at the rear of the building.
