1. The Open

2. The Masters

3. Scottish Open

4. US Open

5. Riviera

I dumped cable 4 years ago and never looked back... life is better without all that cable nonsense.  My golf is limited to whatever is broadcast over the air or what is streamed for free by the tournament.

 

In order of preference; 

1. Masters

2. Masters

3. Masters

4. British Open

5. US Open

I told AT&T to take a hike after my U-verse/fiber internet discount codes all expired and they refused to even offer me some sort of discount for U-verse. I have found the lack of access to be refreshing, I'm not missing golf nearly as much as I thought I would. 

 

1. Masters

2. US Open

3. British Open

4. PGA

 

That's about it. Gimme the 4 majors and I'll be OK (and I probably don't even need those).

I have NO paid streaming  except what comes with Amazon Prime(gift from my wife).  I refuse to pay for those services.  I watch whatever the networks give over the air.  and really do not miss much.  All my "idols" are now gone from the scene. 

 

Only one that is a must is the Masters and that is because of the beauty of the venue.

Then it depends where the other majors are. West coast, I tend not to watch much as it’s on late here.

 

I would probably go Quail Hollow and the Memorial for my last 2.

I don't have cable but I paid $69 for 1 year subscription for PGA Tour Live so I can watch golf while working at home. Usually they cover 2 early featured groups and 2 late featured groups on Thursday and Friday. These featured groups tend to have top 20 players. On Saturday and Sunday they usually have coverage for players usually from 20th to 10th positions about 3 hours before broadcast. I usually don't watch the PGA Tour Live on the weekends.

 

I am willing to pay $10 to $15/month for Golf Channel streaming but they always package it with a bunch of other channels I don't want for at least $69/month.

 

US Open

The Open

Masters 

PGA Tour Live

1) Masters

2) US Open

3) Open Championship

4) Ryder/Presidents Cup

5) Tour Championship

 

PGA Championship is my least favorite of the majors.  There is just nothing about it that really makes it unique.  The Players would be #6 but it's not a major and its played at the same venue.  Obviously the Masters is played at the same venue but I find ANGC to have more intriguing and noteworthy holes than Sawgrass.

The Masters.

 

The US Open if it's at Pebble Beach. If not, the Australian Open. If it's at Royal Melbourne. If not, the PGA Championship. The BMW one at Wentworth.

 

The Open Championship. Wherever it is.

 

The Ryder Cup.

The things I would do to be able to watch World Matchplay at Wentworth again. There was just something about the West Course in Autumn, players rocking up in turtle necks and matchplay golf. It was a great combination and sorely missed.
