For viewers who are so inclined, the Players Championship will offer an opportunity to watch more golf coverage than ever before. For the first time, NBC Sports will collaborate with the PGA Tour to live stream every player in the field’s every shot throughout the Players Championship, to be played March 12-15 at TPC Sawgrass’ Players Stadium Course in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
Every Shot Live coverage will be available only to subscribers of PGA Tour Live on NBC Sports Gold. It’s the result of a colossal effort consisting of nearly 120 cameras positioned throughout the course, with each group having its own dedicated live stream.
Outside of that specialized coverage, NBC Sports will dedicate 22 hours of live tournament coverage across Golf Channel and NBC. Golf Central’s Live From show as well as Morning Drive will supplement that. Michelle Wie West, a five-time LPGA winner, will serve as a contributing analyst on Golf Central.
As for views of the par-3 17th, the daunting island green, NBC Sports will use eight high-definition cameras to cover the hole from all angles. That includes a microscopic lens embedded in the lip of the tiny bunker fronting the green.
