Australia's Finest Scribes Just Perused PGA Tour Media Regulations And They Are Not Happy!

Welcome to our world mates! Tim Dick reports:

The American organisers of this month's Presidents Cup tournament in Melbourne, the PGA Tour, have demanded Australian news organisations delay posting scores online by half an hour and not provide readers with real-time coverage.

Under its rules, TV stations would also be banned from showing any footage until Fox Sports and Channel Nine, who hold the broadcast rights, have finished their coverage. Even then, other broadcasters will be allowed to show only three minutes a day if they accept the PGA Tour conditions, despite Australian copyright law protecting news reporting.
