Gillingham is in Moscow with Eurosport.He has indicated on twitter that he will be doing some Top 14 for BT.
Solheim Cup on Sky Sports.
Sarah Stirk anchoring with Ewen Murray, Richard Kaufman, Mickey Walker, Laura Davies and Christina Kim commentating (in longer than usual 50 minute stints).
On the course Tim Barter, Janice Moodie and Trish Johnson.
Radio Five Sports Extra had Iain Carter, Karen Stupples, Maureen Madill and Conor McNamara and they were all together commentating on the NBC feed.
For the last hour I was in bed and had the pictures from Sky and the Radio 5 commentary on headphones and they were in sync!! Never known that for golf before.
The BBC could have saved a fortune and done it from the UK.

And isn't Sarah Stirk absolutely excellent.
She is Sky's best female sports presenter by miles and probably the best for many, many years.
Just compare her to Sarah Jane Mee constantly looking down to read out pre prepared questions.
When David Livingstone retires I wonder if Sarah may well become Sky's only female main number 1 presenter on a major sport.
A name from the past - sad to read Norman De Mesquita's obituary.
I'm sure many people will remember him.
He's recently died at 81 - apparently he had attended at least one day of every Lords test match since 1945 - ie 68 years - since when he was 13.

I guess the programme is live as they are showing the final live later and so they've just got a live DOG on throughout?

A bit naughty as British Eurosport are showing the same delayed match but do not have the 'Live' flag on.

Di stopped doing any golf for Sky approx a couple of years ago.
Sarah Stirk is a miles better golf presenter because, unlike Di, Sarah actually knows her stuff properly.
Di is better suited to more "general personality" type stuff.

I was surprised David Livingstone wasn't used for such a big event but have to agree Stirk has been excellent.
She's obviously rated highly to be given this.
Also Christina Kim is just fab.
Not a fan of Richard Kaufman though, would have much preferred Rob Lee or Critchley.

Stirk is very good as always.
But totally agree on Christina Kim, she has been really great and not half as much of a cheerleader as some of the others.

Is this a semi world feed comms, to feature Kaufman? He doesn't do any other 'sky' commentary does he on golf??
Recently retired Marion Bartoli has said via her twitter page that she'll be working for Eurosport International (& France) for the US Open.
