USDGC Announces Live Broadcast PPV Packages, Disc Golf Network to Produce Broadcast with Discounts for Subscribers

Rock Hill, SC - The United States Disc Golf Championship has partnered with the Disc Golf Network to execute its pay-per-view (PPV) live broadcast for the 2021 edition of this PDGA Major Championship. The Disc Golf Network has locked in a 20% discount for its subscribers, and the broadcast will stream exclusively on the Disc Golf Network platform and through its apps for those who purchase the PPV.

As was the case for the 2020 USDGC, the live broadcast PPV will be the exclusive way to watch the Championship. However, Disc Golf Network will produce bonus features including, interviews, player features, highlights, and next-day condensed coverage of each round. This additional content will supplement the live coverage and will be available for all those who purchase a pay per view package.

The USDGC has been a trailblazer in developing media advancements for the sport, and the partnership with the Disc Golf Network is the next step in the evolution of the event. “Live tournament coverage originated at the USDGC. For more than two decades we have sought to continually improve the fan experience, both at Winthrop and online for fans around the world. Our partnership with DGN is groundbreaking as we are combining resources to assemble one of the most talented media teams in disc golf tournament history,” Jonathan Poole said, USDGC event director and founder of US Disc Golf.

“The financial support from fans via the pay per view format is an investment in the future of disc golf media. Our efforts each October have had a positive and lasting impact on live disc golf broadcasts well beyond the USDGC itself. The game deserves the best and most complete coverage that we can possibly provide. We are constantly in pursuit of better.”
