NBC Sports Edge BetCast will provide a second-screen experience for Peacock Premium viewers alongside ttraditional coverage of the tournament on NBC and Golf Channel. .

Presented across 10 afternoon hours - 2.5 hours in each of the four tournament rounds - the show will primarily follow a dedicated BetCast-exclusive featured group throughout the round each day, while also highlighting exciting moments, notable shots, and compelling storylines from around the course. A BetCast host and two analysts will be on the GOLF Channel Live studio set overlooking the famed, par-3 16th hole. Coverage will also feature a PointsBet Sportsbook oddsmaker at their trading desk.
The NBC Sports Edge BetCast stream on Peacock Premium is another step forward for our sports betting strategy, says Norb Gambuzza, PGA TOUR Senior Vice President, Media and Gaming. We are extremely excited to produce and distribute specialized betting content as a companion to our linear and digital coverage with our partners at NBC Sports and PointsBet.
