SiriusXM Announces Coverage for 2024 PGA Championship
Live broadcasts of all four days of tournament play - May 16-19 - from Valhalla G.C. in Louisville, KY, co-produced by SiriusXM and Westwood One
NEW YORK – May 7, 2024 – SiriusXM announced today its coverage of the 2024 PGA Championship, taking place Thursday, May 16th through Sunday, May 19th at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, KY.
Live Championship play-by-play, which SiriusXM will co-produce with Westwood One, will air starting at 2 pm ET all four days of tournament play. Additionally, SiriusXM will provide live look-ins during its programming in the morning and early afternoon each day to give listeners live coverage and updates on featured groups playing earlier in the day.
PGA Championship programming is available to SiriusXM subscribers in their cars (channel 92) and on the SiriusXM app: https://sxm.app.link/PGATourRadioonSXM
Veteran play-by-play voices Brian Katrek and Taylor Zarzour will anchor the live daily coverage. Three-time PGA Tour winner Johnson Wagner, PGA will be the lead analyst. Maureen Madill, Dennis Paulson, Drew Stoltz, Andres Gonzales and Mark Carnevale, PGA, will be the on-course reporters, following key playing groups during the Championship. Jason Sobel will conduct pre- and post-round interviews with players in the field.
This will be the fourth time Valhalla Golf Club hosts the PGA Championship. In its previous three events, the Championship has twice gone to a playoff – Mark Brooks’ sudden death victory over Kenny Perry in 1996 and Tiger Woods’s playoff win over Bob May in 2000 – and was decided by one stroke in 2014 as Rory McIlroy bested Phil Mickelson.
“The PGA Championship annually features a tremendous field and Valhalla Golf Club has produced thrilling and memorable golf each time it has hosted this great event. We’re looking forward to covering all the action on SiriusXM and bringing our listeners closer to that excitement this week in Louisville,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “Between our live hole-by-hole coverage and all of the exclusive programming we’ll present before and after the tournament, fans will be able to immerse themselves in everything happening at the course from the start of the week through the time this year’s PGA Champion raises the Wanamaker Trophy.”
