Canadian pay-television broadcaster TSN has secured exclusive rights in the country to PGA Tour Live, the US golf tour’s subscription streaming service, which will be broadcast on the newly launched TSN+ streaming platform.

Through an expanded deal with the PGA Tour, more than 4,300 hours of event coverage by PGA Tour Live throughout the season will be broadcast on TSN+.

Coverage began yesterday (January 12) with the Sony Open in Hawaii and includes featured groups, featured holes, and a marquee group, from which every shot from each player will be shown.

PGA Tour Live was previously available in Canada through Warner Bros. Discovery’s GolfTV subscription streaming service, but the media and entertainment giant has shuttered that service as part of a strategic restructuring.

That also saw WBD hand back to the tour coverage rights in Asia, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and areas in Europe and Latin America not covered by WBD’s Discovery+ streaming service and Eurosport channel, which has seen e&’s evision media and entertainment division also launch a new golf channel – covering the PGA Tour in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
