ProGolfNow is going to save you some time and frustration. Beginning this week we’ll publish Golf This Week every Monday, highlighting television coverage of major (and sometimes minor) golf events.
Note that all broadcast times are given in ET. You’ll need to make the appropriate conversion for your time zone. This week, Golf Channel has a lock on the coverage schedule.

Monday, March 27, 9pm: David Feherty sits down for a chat with Condoleezza Rice. I always enjoy Feherty. He’s one of the best interviewers in the business, and I’m really looking forward to this one. Condoleezza Rice is an amazing and very engaging woman – scholar, diplomat, sports fan, golfer, and risk-taking adventurer are all ways to describe this woman who took up the game in her 50s, was one of the first women invited to join Augusta National Golf Club, and who never misses the Pebble Beach Pro-Am. I intend to kick back and enjoy this one.
Wednesday, March 29, 11am: If you’re not locked in to a daytime work schedule or out on the golf course yourself, and if you missed Feherty’s conversation with Patrick Reed, you might want to take the time to watch this replay. Reed’s a more complex person than I understood and I very much enjoyed getting to know him a bit better.
Thursday, March 30, 12 noon: Live coverage of the 1st round of the ANA Inspiration, the LPGA’s first Major of the 2017 season. The field is very strong and I’m expecting the golf to be exciting from the first tee shot to the final putt. If you’re looking for betting tips, I’ve already ranked the top of the field.
