ORLANDO, Florida — As the golf season wraps up in exciting fashion over the next few weeks with the Hero World Challenge and Presidents Cup highlighting the month of December, GOLF Channel has announced its holiday programming plans to close out 2019.
The network’s slate of holiday programming began Tuesday Nov. 26th, with the premiere of Extraordinary Firsts – The Inaugural Augusta National Women’s Amateur (8 p.m. ET). Narrated by NBC Sports’ Emmy Award-winning reporter Michele Tafoya, the film chronicles the historic first edition of the event having taken place at Augusta National Golf Club this past April.
Immediately following the film was the Feherty – Brilliantly Stupid Not So Special Year-End Special (9 p.m. ET), with the Emmy-nominated host joined by GOLF Channel colleagues Brandel Chamblee and Jaime Diaz reflecting on the sport’s most memorable moments of 2019.
Other highlights of the network’s themed holiday programming include:
- PGA TOUR Season Marathon: In what has become an annual custom, viewers will have an opportunity to revisit each PGA TOUR event contested in 2019 through one-hour highlight telecasts airing on GOLF Channel in succession from Thursday, Dec. 26 through Sunday, Dec. 29.
- World Long Drive: Being showcased twice on NBC over the next two weeks, World Long Drive will be highlighted through a season in review broadcast airing at 5 p.m. ET on Saturday, Nov. 30, and an encore broadcast of the 2019 World Long Drive Championship airing at 4 p.m. ET on Sunday, Dec. 8.
- A Very Feherty Christmas: A collection of episodes from the Emmy-nominated Feherty series will air in the evening and early-morning hours on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
- Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf: Airing throughout the day on Tuesday, Dec. 31 to close out 2019, Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf will feature some of the game’s most storied figures taking part in head-to-head matches from golf course locations (all available on GOLFNOW) from around the world.
- GOLFPASS: Viewers will have an opportunity to engage with GOLFPASS throughout the holiday season, which will be highlighted across GOLF Channel programming through dedicated programming on Nov. 29 (Black Friday), Dec. 2 (Cyber Monday), Dec. 26-29 (early-morning hours), and on New Year’s Day.
