Sky Sports has faced backlash from golf fans regarding its recent changes to PGA Tour coverage for the current season. Traditionally, the broadcaster has provided its own commentary and analysis during significant PGA events, creating a unique viewing experience for its audience. However, this year, Sky has opted to utilize an international feed for both the footage and commentary, leaving many viewers dissatisfied with what they perceive as a lower-quality production.

Viewers had anticipated a return to the familiar style of coverage that featured Sky's exclusive commentary or partnerships with major networks like CBS or NBC for important events, particularly as the Masters tournament approaches. The audience's disappointment was magnified during the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and the initial rounds of the current tournament, where the reliance on the international feed led to complaints about the lack of localized insights and the depth of coverage that Sky is known for.

This change in coverage is particularly concerning to fans as it affects their experience leading up to one of golf's most prestigious events, the Masters. As viewers express their discontent on social media, questions arise about whether Sky Sports will reconsider its strategy and how it will impact its relationship with the golfing community moving forward.
