2017 PGA Championship to Air on SiriusXM


SiriusXM will offer listeners play-by-play and talk coverage of the 2017 PGA Championship, taking place August 10-13 at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte. PGA Championship programming will air on Sirius channel 208 and XM channel 92. Live hole-by-hole coverage, which SiriusXM will co-produce with Westwood One, will air from 12pm-7pm ET all four days of Championship play, for a total of 28 hours of live coverage from the course.

The broadcast will be hosted by play-by-play voice Taylor Zarzour, with PGA Professional Charlie Rymer serving as the analyst in the booth. Former tour pros Mark Carnevale, John Maginnes and Dennis Paulson, and broadcasters Fred Albers, Doug Bell and Bill Rosinski will provide live commentary from around the course.

"Golf fans will get an exceptional level of coverage of the year's final major, which annually features one of the strongest fields in golf," said SiriusXM President/Chief Content Officer Scott Greenstein. "With four days of play-by-play from Quail Hollow and exclusive shows hosted by two-time PGA Championship-winner Dave Stockton, PGA of America president Pete Bevacqua and more of the game's greats, our listeners will get an excellent perspective on the course, the event and the competitors."
