Broadcast PGA Tour Live during the Hawaii Swing


Broadcast PGA Tour Live during the Hawaii Swing
The Issue
PGA Tour Live is a media service owned by the PGA Tour (sometimes stylized PGA TOUR) that provides subscribers exclusive streaming coverage of early-round action for featured groups during PGA Tour tournaments. Since launching a few years ago, PGA Tour Live is the only way that avid golf fans can watch live coverage of a particular tournament before the broadcast window begins on one of the Tour's three television partners — Golf Channel, NBC, and CBS.
Subscribers pay a premium for this opportunity to watch this content, at a cost of $65/year or $10/month. While nearly every event (aside from the Major championships run by different governing bodies) on the Tour's schedule features PGA Tour Live coverage, there is a distinct and significant lack of PGA Tour Live for the Tour's annual Hawaii Swing, which encompasses the Sentry Tournament of Champions and Sony Open. (Note – this practice has gone on for several years; this year's omission was not brought about by COVID)
We, the subscribers of PGA Tour Live & fans of golf alike, call upon the PGA Tour to reconsider this practice & bring its fans the coverage they want, deserve, and pay for.
