Mandatory Credit: Allison Lawhon-Imagn Images The PGA Tour averaged 2.969 million viewers for broadcasts on CBS, an increase of 17 percent from last year, the network announced on Tuesday.
The average is the network’s best since 2018.
Per CBS, 14 of the 19 final-round telecasts saw a year-over-year ratings jump.
This past weekend drew in sizable numbers, as an average of 1.95 million fans tuned into to watch Cameron Young record his first PGA Tour victory at the Wyndham Championship on Sunday.
Young strung together five consecutive early birdies and cruised to a six-stroke win at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C.
The average fan viewership represents a 36-percent increase from the final of the 2024 event, which was won by Aaron Rai.
The broadcast team is set to undergo change for next season after longtime commentator Ian Baker-Finch announced his retirement after 30 years. The Wyndham Championship was his final broadcast.
Last weekend’s tournament was the final one this season for CBS. The PGA now heads into the FedEx Cup Playoffs, with NBC and its affiliates set to run the show. The FedEx St. Jude Championship will tee off on Thursday.
