Starting on February 4th with the Johnnie Walker Classic, Eurosport will cover a total of 35 European Tour events per season.

Eurosport will broadcast a 30 minutes highlight show, produced by European Tour Productions, on the Wednesday after each tournament in prime time in the ‘Wednesday Selection’, giving the golf fans the opportunity to follow
all the action on the green.

‘We are delighted to offer golf fans the chance to follow in prime time the best European players in action. As Europe’s leading sports channel, we are looking forward to continuing to develop a successful and long term
partnership with the governing body of tournament Golf in Europe,’ said Vincent Chupin, Eurosport Director of Rights Acquisitions.

‘We are delighted with this new highlights agreement which will further expand the audience of European Tour golf within Europe. Eurosport has an historical association with the European Tour dating back to the early 1990’s and we are pleased to be resuming this partnership,’ added George O’Grady, Deputy Executive Director of the PGA European Tour.
