Finally. Two morning marquee groups, no pricing or platform availability details yet. I personally would try it for an event, and if it's any good, I'd pay $2/month for it, but I think it'll probably be more like $5 or more a month. And I'd only pay for the months if there's a tournament I'm interested in, like The Players or something like that. Overall, disappointing, but at least they're doing something.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – The PGA TOUR today announced the creation of PGA TOUR LIVE, a digital Over-The-Top subscription service featuring exclusive, live Thursday and Friday morning coverage of more than 30 PGA TOUR events per season.  The PGA TOUR and MLB Advanced Media (MLBAM) are entering into a multi-year partnership to develop, produce, and distribute the OTT service to golf fans in North America and other key markets around the world.

Set to launch this summer, PGA TOUR LIVE will feature exclusive Thursday and Friday coverage of two morning featured groups leading up to the afternoon Golf Channel television broadcast.  PGA TOUR LIVE will mark the first time ever that complete, live coverage of morning marquee groups has been provided to fans.

With stuff like this, I think of what I'd be willing to pay and multiply it by 10. I think it'll wind up at the $9.99, $14.99, or $19.99 price points.

I like where this is going, and especially if I can stream while in my office at work, I'd do this in a heartbeat.

I'd consider paying up to $9.99 a month for this if it's done well. Possibly more. I'm interested.

I wish I had this right now, having to read a live blog about the WGC match play is just...depressing.

If they air live golf that the broadcast channels don't provide I'd pay $10 a month for it.
