Ratings up for Open

NBC and USGA officials must have been pretty pleased when they saw the overnight ratings of yesterday's final round. 

Sunday's coverage earned the best overnight rating in six years, at 8.5/18.  Most impressive was the audience from 8:30-9:00 EST, which peaked at a 13.5.

Those aren't game five NBA finals numbers (17.3 million last night), but they're something to be proud of.
