TNT's golf coverage is produced by Turner Sports and consists of television broadcasts of professional golf events in the United States.
TNT was the long-running holder of cable rights to the PGA Championship (with full coverage of the first two rounds and early coverage of the weekend rounds since 1999 after being on sister channel TBS[1][2] since 1991) under a contract with the PGA of America.[3] From 2003 to 2009, TNT also held the cable rights to The Open Championship.
The channel has generally only carried major competitions, as opposed to the other week-to-week tournaments which are under the auspices of the PGA Tour, an organization which is independent of the PGA of America.
Since 2020, TNT has televised The Match, a series of exhibition matches with top professional golfers and professional athletes from other sports.
