Golf Channel spiced things up during the broadcast of the Zozo Championship this past week.
You had to stay up late to see it, but if you did you were rewarded with extended visits to the broadcast booth from Rickie Fowler (Thursday), Charley Hoffman (Friday), Pat Perez (Saturday) and Ryan Palmer (Sunday).
Like this classic Saturday Night Live skit with Christopher Walker – “Needs more cowbell!” – PGA Tour broadcasts can use some more spice. Let’s hope this will become a regular thing in the 2020-21 season and not just a late-night experiment that gets shutdown by some suit.
Here are 21 players that we’d like to see as part of what Golf Channel dubbed its “player takeover” segment. Editor’s note: Players are listed alphabetically.
