SiriusXM names six-time PGA Tour winner Rocco Mediate joins the roster of hosts on its 24/7 PGA Tour Radio channel. Mediate will have his own show, "The Rocco Hour," which he'll host every Tuesday at 6pm ET, beginning March 7. Mediate joined the PGA Tour in 1986 and earned the first of his six Tour wins at the 1991 Doral-Ryder Open. He finished in the top ten in major Tournaments four times in his career.

"I have 38 years of PGA Tour experience. I see and remember everything," said Mediate. "I have so much to say and I'm excited to have my own show on SiriusXM where I can share it with our listeners. So buckle up. It's going to be fun."

"Rocco is a terrific addition to SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio," added SiriusXM President and Chief Content Officer Scott Greenstein. "Throughout his long and successful career on the PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions, he's always been one of the most personable players in his sport, well-liked by both his peers and the fans. We're excited to give him a platform to share his knowledge and passion for the game, and so many great stories from a life in golf."

On his debut show, Mediate will preview next week's PLAYERS Championship, an event he played in 21 times with three top-10 finishes. SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio will air live play-by-play of all four rounds of the PLAYERS Championship from TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra, FL. Live on-course coverage starts 11am ET on Thursday and Friday (March 9-10), and at noon ET on Saturday and Sunday (March 11-12).
