NY Post: Discovery "Among Several Suiters" For Golf Digest

In an item unusually light on details by Keith Kelly standards and feeling more like a reminder to interested suitors that Golf Digest is still for sale, the New York Post media writer says new PGA Tour International TV distributor Discovery is interested.

The billionaire Newhouse family has a minority stake in publicly traded Discovery, but the family connection is not necessarily giving the programmer any advantage. It will come down to price and Discovery’s long-term strategy on golf.

Discovery actually has some live-streaming golf in Europe connected to the PGA tour but does not have any golfing channels in the US and currently has no print within its empire.

Someone get Kelley the memo that Discovery’s GOLFTV is the Netflix of golf!

Conde Nast had set a year-end 2018 deadline to sell Golf Digest and two other publications.
