Bill Murray has hilarious crooked Skype chat during TaylorMade Driving Relief
Professional golf returned to live TV for the first time in two months on Sunday with the TaylorMade Driving Relief match that pitted Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson against Rickie Fowler and Matthew Wolff. While the event featured some of the biggest names in the sport, one of the highlights of the event was actually a virtual appearance from Bill Murray.
Murray, who is always quite visible around the PGA Tour, called into the TaylorMade Driving Relief to chat with NBC’s Mike Tirico. Viewers probably weren’t surprised to see that the actor and comedian didn’t seem all that experienced with Skype. Something was a bit off about Murray’s camera angle.
Unclear if Bill Murray can’t figure out how to balance his camera or just did this whole thing diagonal for comedy reasons. #DrivingRelief pic.twitter.com/zJFBXV9gY6

Of course, Murray claimed that was his first experience with skype.
The event was organized to raise money for the American Nurses Foundation and the CDC Foundation, and Murray and Tirico agreed to donate $15,000 each to the organizations. Murray may not have been able to set up a camera the right way, but his appearance was certainly worthwhile.
