As I write this post I’m listening to a wrap-up of the Arnold Palmer International on internet radio from PGATOUR.COM.
I’m not sure how long this radio program has been around (not long from what I can tell), but I think I’ll be tuning in regularly. I live in Australia, so I’ll be sleeping through most of the program, but I should be able to pick-up some of it on either end of the day.
The PGA Tour radio program is delivered by XM Satellite Radio. XM has approx. 200 internet radio programs, including music and other sports, although I think you need to pay a monthly subscription for access to everything.
Do I really ‘need’ golf radio on top of all the other golf media (eg websites, magazines, podcasts, television)? No, but since when did ‘need’ really dictate our decisions, particularly when it comes to golf!
