ESPN+ to carry PGA Tour Live on Thursdays, Fridays only at fall 2023 U.S. events

The FedEx Cup Fall is a unique one-off of seven tournaments, as the PGA Tour transitions from the wrap-around schedule to a return to a calendar-based format, with the 2024 campaign starting in January.

Of the seven events, four of them will be staged in the U.S.

That means for you live streamers and cord-cutters out there, your viewing options are being altered just a tad, as the streaming coverage of PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will only be on Thursdays and Fridays.

ESPN+ is the exclusive home of PGA Tour Live, and Front Office Sports reports that it’s the most watched content on the streaming platform. But while ESPN+ generally has its four-channel experiences for all four days of PGA Tour stops, it’ll only have the first and second rounds of those U.S.-based tournaments.

Dates Tournament Course Coverage start time
Sept. 14-15 Fortinet Championship Silverado Resort
Napa, Calif.
10 a.m. ET

The Zozo Championship in Japan, the World Wide Technology Championship in Mexico and the Butterfield Bermuda Championship will not have PGA Tour Live on ESPN+.

All seven of the fall events will have four rounds of live coverage of Golf Channel, which will be simulcast on NBC’s streaming service Peacock.
