NBC to broadcast golf in HDTV?

I got HDTV service during March Madness and was thrilled that the Masters was broadcast in HDTV. It was truly a great experience but now I hear that NBC is going to broadcast the U.S. Open and I think, the British Open, too. Does anyone know if they plan on offering HDTV? I know CBS broadcasts a lot in HDTV as they did with their college basketball games and the Masters. I really hope NBC does this. If you ever meet someone who says watching golf is "boring," show them a tournament on HDTV and it'll change their mind.

I kept hearing about HDTV especially whenever they broadcast basketball games on ESPN. The problem is, when they demonstrate HDTV, it looks the same because it's broadcast on my television. So what's the difference with HDTV anyway?

there is a clear picture difference. imagine a polaroid snapshot vs. a studio photograph done by a professional. i've never been to augusta so i didn't really see the beauty of the magnolias until i saw it on hdtv. even if you go to best buy, you won't be able to see true hdtv as they'll probably have a dvd on but the picture quality still isn't as great.
