“Discovery and GOLFTV is dedicated to growing the game of golf and we are thrilled to continue supporting the PGA of Canada’s outstanding service for members and golfers to do exactly this across the country,” said Alex Kaplan, President and General Manager of Discovery Golf and GOLFTV.
“Our agreement is exactly the type of innovative collaboration Discovery is looking to establish within golf. It has been a pleasure working closely with the PGA of Canada, and we are excited to enhance the value and benefits their members receive even further. This is a perfect time to enjoy live and on-demand content on GOLFTV,” he added.
