We always knew that TGL the sixth week would tell us a story about the Golf Squirput League simulator.
The question was: which story?
Would the tale of a rare hit – the rare new sport of sport capable of finding immediate trade and popular success? Or would it be the last in a proud origin of pro -sports failures, a league that fails to reach the wider sports world despite its PGA Tour support?
In our gray world, it is probably no surprise to learn the answer falls somewhere between the two. TGL is not a hit hit, despite a few weeks of convincing TV reports and strong ratings, but it is not a complete failure from Golf Fanbase.
Evaluations tell a similar story. The day of the presidents of the Triple-Header Mondays (displaying two matinee matches and an evening split between ESPN and ESPN2) submitted some of the smallest ratings on the League TV to date, offering 347,000 (ESPN), 377,000 (ESPN) and 357,000 (ESPN2) Medium viewers, respectively. Those holiday numbers, while only a portion of 1.05 million they awarded for Tiger Woods debut at week 2Represent modest benefits on broadcasting at the same windows last year, and generally fall in accordance with the expectations for the holiday, the time slot and the home network.
Of course, it is certainly not in the best long-term interests of the TGL for its Telekastrat to rest between a trimester and a million medium viewers in each given week (if not growth, consistency is a required feature in the world of TV ). One of the biggest advantages of the League is its partnership with ESPN, which broadcast the League matches on Monday and Tuesday as part of a deal that sees TGL coverage costs. The so -called “worldwide leader” provides a lot of cover (and a high floor) for a market -owned sports property, and the Moon and Tuesday games Primates given to the league have largely paid sight dividends.
ESPN likes vivid sports, which help attract sustainable audiences and, by extending, constant money making opportunities. But it is the task of TGL to show that it can continue to give those things. Monday’s ratings will not remove ESPN Brass from choosing a similar premium tile in the second year, but both networks and leagues would probably prefer whether the numbers would stay closer to them in early January.
The latest group of ratings from TGL comes after its “official partners” with PGA Tour have seen their incentive on television. The final coverage of the CBS of the winning genesis attracted 3.4 million medium viewers, with five percent from last year, last A last trend of rating bumps For the tournament after a 2024 catastrophic they saw nearly one -fifth of his television audience disappear. It is difficult for anyone to finally say how TGL, whose average viewer is more than a decade younger than PGA Tour, may be helping ultimately, but as long as the numbers are good , it may not matter.
Comparatively, ratings have remained a war for LIV, which aired on the main Fox broadcast network for the first time last weekend for its latest round by Adelaide, Australia. Adelaide should strengthen the TV audience of the LEGA in the SH.BA after open numbers of the gloomy season by Saudi Arabia (Middle viewers 19k Throughout the weekend), but her place in the Hierarchy of TV Golf since February 19 remains under her simulator sisters.
For now, this is the best story TGL can tell. And considering where the floor was only seven weeks ago, that’s not half bad.
