I'll check if this is accessible via Roku and report back and may try it on an LG if that doesn't work.

The PGA Tour has launched a live and video-on-demand OTT service through a partnership with Xumo.

The PGA Tour says that this is its first ad-supported OTT channel available on smart TVs and will provide both live and VOD programming. Content will include highlights, recaps, player interviews, tournament previews and live featured hole coverage from PGA Tour Live.

Xumo takes live and library content and turns into linear, 24-hour video feeds. The company now has more than 150 channels featuring entertainment, news and sports content.

The channel is now available on LG’s Channel Plus service, powered by Xumo, and across the Xumo distribution network, which includes smart TVs from Hisense, Sharp, Vizio and Panasonic.

I just checked on my Roku and there is no new channel.  But I DID find a channel for the 2017 PGA Championship.  I have no idea who is doing it but it didn't look like the tour.  Weird.

But then again, what the hell do I know?
