Overnight Ratings: CBS Sees Dip For Watson's Win At Travelers

CBS saw a decrease in overnight ratings for the the final round of the PGA Tour Travelers Championship yesterday afternoon. The net drew a 2.2 rating for Bubba Watson's come-from-behind win over Paul Casey and three others, down from a 2.7 last year, when Jordan Spieth won in a playoff over Daniel Berger. Two years ago, the event drew a 1.1 overnight for the final round, which aired in early August due to the Rio Games.
