PGA Championship 2015 live stream
There are just four more days of major championship golf left this year, which is awful news. But at the start of the week, we have an amazing set of circumstances amplifying the hype for the 2015 PGA Championship.
It should be the perfect cap to a great majors season and the broadcast beneficiaries will be CBS and TNT. CBS is the only network in the game with the rights to multiple majors. ESPN enjoys a subcontract for the first two rounds of the Masters and has just one year left on their rights deal carrying all of the British Open. But no network other than CBS, the primary TV partner of the PGA Tour, has the weekend at multiple majors.

The Masters is obviously their marquee golf property. It's the best and most highly-rated tournament of the year. But the month of August is probably CBS' most loaded stretch on their entire golf calendar. There was last week's WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, they're only WGC property, and that had 48 of the top 50 players in the world. Then there's the final major of the season, which wraps up before football completely overwhelms sports. And they also have the opening event of the FedExCup playoffs later this month. It's not quite the "Season of Nantz" sequence that includes March Madness and the Masters, but this August of golf leading into NFL kickoff does mean we get an extra-excitable Jim Nantz. Here he is on the eve of the PGA doing an interview -- feel the enthusiasm!
We tend to dramatize everything Tiger does as either the best or the worst, and overemphasize every round. But his start on Thursday is going to be extremely important for what we get out of Tiger the rest of this year, and maybe even beyond that. He's got to get off to a steady, if not quick start. He keeps making bogeys on almost EVERY single opening hole at the majors, and even at lesser PGA Tour tournaments too. Whatever he does on the range doesn't translate to his first few holes, and the balls start sailing off the course. Whistling Straits does not have the tightest fairways, but it does hammer the wildest drives with all sorts of junk and jail that promptly result in large crooked numbers on the scorecard. Tiger has to start well -- even if it's just a string of pars with some fairways and greens in regulation. If not, it could get real ugly real fast on the marquee groups stream and his season may be over just nine holes into his PGA start.
