    Good day all,

    I signed up for ESPN+ to watch Rory and Tiger this week. Not sure if I am going to keep it, does anybody have any insight as to whether their golf content is worth keeping the subscription. I know it is all relative…

    Thanks,

    I believe it to be worth it. Their coverage depends on whether or not they have the live coverage rights as well as the streaming right. The Masters coverage when incredible.

    Personally I would rather watch our Titleist Ambassadors as well as other golfers on the regular channels. I really enjoy watching more than one or two golfers. Just sayin' with no disrespect to Rory and TW.

    I had the old PGA Tour live and then got switched over the the ESPN PGA Tour Live. I can say that since ESPN purchased PGA Tour live it has been much better. The camera footage quality, more groups being followed, and more hours of coverage to me are worth the $8.00 per month!

    I do not have it myself, but PGA Tour Live (via ESPN+) has early coverage of every tournament, which is very nice especially since coverage sometimes doesn’t start y til 2:00. It may not seem great for the majors. I believe ESPN was showing the PGA at 10:00 or so, but for other tournaments it’s probably worth it.

    JS - I have the subscription purchased for Golf early coverage and also the NHL package. I keep it as I watch every tournament early coverage for the featured groups as I watch while at work. However I will admit the coverage is not as good as when on the PGATOUR Live package or the NHL Game Center prior to ESPN taking over..

    I was annoyed that ESPN+ didn't cover the lead group on Saturday. Also this whole different channels have different coverage thing is really annoying. Can the PGA just sell the rights per tournament to one service so i can see the whole thing in one place. Watched Zalatoris come in on ESPN+ then had to scramble to find the playoff on another channel.

    I have it and I do enjoy the additional coverage. I usually have it playing alongside my work screens on Thursdays and Fridays. I think it's worth it!

    Thanks all for the replies. I had always thought the early coverage on the golf channel was sufficient. I wil see how it goes. I am pleasantly surprised at the positive reviews.

    Thanks again,

    I don't have ESPN+ but I watched the first hour on ESPN and Joe Buck and Michael Collins were absolutely horrible , then the stupid Mannings joined in so I put TV on mute, the only enjoyable segment was when Fred Couples was interviewed !!!

    ESPN has really went downhill the last couple years , other than their college football coverage.

    Right on G! I posted this on another thread. It was an absolute joke.

    Oh yeah. It's amazing. Getting to watch live coverage all morning every Thursday to Sunday and not being limited to the few hours of national coverage is a game changer. Plus you should be able to get Hulu and Disney+ with it. WIN/WIN/WIN

    I like the coverage because it starts immediately. When I wake up, live golf is on. I also get to see all the action, and not just the usual broadcasting. The featured holes and groups are great, plus the main feed. The commentators are better too.

    I got ESPN+ with Hulu and it’s been great. Their early morning coverage was much better than the afternoon CBS coverage which was a few golf sandwiched in between commercials. I highly recommend it

    Definitely worth it for the money. I typically utilize it every Thursday and Friday and then switch to CBS coverage on Saturday and Sunday.

    I see enough of golf on the regular cable TV channels, and I'm not impressed with ESPN golf coverage. Much rather buy a sleeve of ProV1x's and be on the course playing. I'll watch reruns in the evening.

    I too have Hulu + live and enjoy being able to watch ESPN+. Like others, having the option to see featured groups and full coverage starting on Thursday is great.

    I love the ESPN+ coverage. I’m a Jordan fan so being able to just watch and follow him instead of coverage bouncing all over the place is great in my opinion.
