    Hi

    Who is showing the USPGA this year ?

    My TV subs is up and if it was Sky, then grand, but if like last years the BBC have it and decide that Athletics is more important, and put it on the red button..then Virgin don't have the red button...

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    Did they show the whole thing live on Twitter last year? Or have I imagined that?

    It was on BBC last year but the coverage was poor.

    To answer the OP, they have not announced who has the rights this year. However, everything points towards Sky regaining them.

    +1 I'd say the PGA of America wanted to show Sky that they weren't indispensable, I'd expect normal service to resume this year. BBC were never going to do a decent job covering it, they've been gradually pulling away from golf for the past few years, even dumping the (British) Open a year before their contract was due to expire.
