Another broadcast headache for Jay Monahan & Co.! The PGA Tour has faced a lot of heat recently for its abrupt broadcasting decisions. The first instance happened during the 2025 Genesis Invitational, where the telecast was focused on Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler despite Ludvig Aberg heading towards a win. The same happened at the 2025 Masters, where a huge part of the first round was not available for broadcast. Fans were furious about missing the first couple of hours of action from Augusta National.
Something similar has now happened in the coverage from TPC Louisville. A few hours after the first round tee-off, the broadcast of the 2025 Zurich Classic has faced an unexpected disruption. It seems that there is a power issue around the venue that has caused this issue. The Shotgun Start tweeted an update about the same with a caption, “‘There’s a power issue at Zurich Classic so they are having technical difficulties which is why you’re getting bonus coverage of PGA Tour Champions.’ Is @TheRealPJClark in the New Orleans area?” As confirmed, the tournament broadcast has been disrupted, and instead, the network is showing action from the Senior Tour.
