Before the Ryder Cup, there were concerns about the live coverage of the Solheim Cup. Many people, including golfers like Matt Fitzpatrick, have expressed their dissatisfaction with the channel responsible for broadcasting the event, Sky Sports.

During both round one and round two of the Solheim Cup, complaints about the coverage have persisted. These issues have caused a stir on social media, with many people sharing their frustrations.

A senior writer from Golf Week has pointed out that the company UCom is responsible for the feed and graphics of the Solheim broadcast. She voiced her concerns on Twitter by making the tweet.

The question now is whether the golfing broadcasters will listen to the feedback and the outcry on social media, especially regarding biased coverage, and take steps to improve the coverage of the event in the coming days. When Nelly Korda and her teammates get ready to tee off for the next day, will anything change?
