Now in their new studios in Connecticut, Golf Channel has announced the launch a new daily show, Golf Today.
The show, which will debut in 2021, will feature newly added talent in Shane Bacon, as well as, Damon Hack, Anna Whiteley and Jimmy Roberts.
“Golf Today represents a natural progression in our daily studio programming. At midday, we can lead the daily golf conversation with access to newsmakers in all time zones, Tour players on the range preparing for upcoming tournaments and live press conferences. We’re also thrilled to welcome Shane Bacon as a co-host of Golf Today. Shane has developed an avid fan base with his fresh and insightful approach across his work on golf broadcasts, social media and podcasts, and he’ll be a great fit with the Golf Today, Live From and tournament teams,” said Molly Solomon, executive producer, GOLF Channel.
The show will debut on January 4, 2021 from Golf Channel’s new Connecticut studios.
Golf Today
Golf Today is supposed to serve as a throwback to GOLF Channel’s inaugural year of 1995, when the program of the same name served as the network’s original live tournament pre-game show.
Golf Today also represents the evolution of Morning Drive, which winds down this week after kicking off weekdays on GOLF Channel for the better part of a decade.
Golf Central will continue to air in its customary evening and pre- and post-event windows, with episodes re-airing on weekday mornings.
