To get close to Tiger's performance, Spieth would have needed to shoot around 265.

I agree the coverage was pitiful...but couldnt disagree more with the rest of your post.
It sounded like Nance and Faldo had lost their puppy dog as Tiger struggled and Speith didnt fold. Rory shot a 66 but no one would know that until 18 because CBS didnt show a single shot of Rory's on the back nine, yet every single Tiger shot made it into the show while shooting a 73.
18 under is 18 under...IDGAF if it was 1997 or 2015.
