Golf has always been known as a traditionalist sport. The fact that many of its principles have remained the same since its inception is what keeps many coming back. Still, that doesn’t mean there haven’t been some interesting changes to the way we’re able to watch the game. CBS Sports has beefed up their coverage in 2018 with some robust technological advancements.
The network’s coverage of 21 PGA Tour events in 2018 will make use of tools like Toptracer, SmartCart, Virtual Eye and many others.
“The basic pictures of the golf course from our cameras and the basic announcer commentary is the foundation of our coverage,” CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus told Sports Video Group.
