How To Watch The PGA Championship On ESPN+
If you want to watch as much coverage of the PGA Championship as possible, you are in luck with ESPN+. This year ESPN+ and ESPN will have more than 230 hours of live play across the two platforms. Additionally viewers will get exclusive Featured Groups and Featured Hole broadcasts as well as an archive of 44 official PGA Championship films.
Sounds great and a no-brainer right? Well the company is also continuing a new concept first used in the 2022 tournament - an alternate telecast that will, per ESPN's Press Room, 'complement the event’s traditional television production. The telecast will be hosted by Matt Barrie and Michael Collins, hosts of ESPN’s Matty and the Caddie podcast, and joining ESPN’s coverage to host the telecast on Saturday and Sunday will be members of the No Laying Up golf content platform. Airing four hours per day, the alternate telecast will feature an array of guests to offer running commentary and conversation during live play.' You can see the full schedule and when specific broadcasts are on with the timetable below.
Additionally ESPN+ will offer golf fans an huge amount of coverage from the PGA Tour throughout the year. If you want more than the golf as well, the PGA Tour Live content will be part of the ESPN+ base subscription which also covers Major League Soccer’s out-of-market package, Italian Serie A soccer, UFC fight nights and select MLB and NHL games.
