Golf Channel To Show Long Drivers Of America In Three-Year Deal

The event will be showcased next year during October on Golf Channel via three primetime specials and a live, two-hour finale (Golf Channel). The three-year deal "gives up some ad space for LDA to sell." Golf Channel "is not paying a rights fee." The event previously had purchased time to appear on ESPN (SPORTSBUSINESS JOURNAL, 10/29 issue).
