This is a massive week for professional golf.
We have reached the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines and in general we are talking about one of the more awesome events that the PGA Tour has to offer. This is hardly a normal week, though.
You see, the Farmers this year represents more than just its standard top-notch tournament. This year the Farmers will serve as Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour after being away at LIV Golf and the world wants to see it all.
ESPN is here to answer our call.
It was announced on Monday, originally on The Pat McAfee Show, that ESPN will bring PGA Tour Live coverage to its primary linear channel from 12-3pm ET on both Thursday and Friday for the opening rounds of play. The Thursday window specifically will coincide with Koepka’s return because of course it will.
Notably, this is serving as the first time in nearly (as was reported by the Tour itself) 20 years that ESPN will offer live coverage of a PGA Tour event that is not a major championship. To be clear this means ESPN the linear channel, the main one, and not a secondary channel option or additional service like ESPN+.
On that subject, while the broadcast will be available on ESPN the company is also lifting the broadcast to both Hulu and Disney+ for anyone who wishes to consume it that way.

![Suryansh Shedge: Should have stayed longer because I was set Spending time in the middle was the mantra for Suryansh Shedge, whose 57 off 29 balls had temporarily seemed to have dragged Punjab Kings out of the woods on Sunday.The visitor eventually lost by four wickets against the Gujarat Titans, but Shedge, having waited for long to pounce on an opportunity, got much-needed gametime.“I wouldn’t say I was waiting. I was preparing. So, I look at it from that perspective that whenever I’m thrown into a situation, I should be ready for that. I’ve been speaking to Ricky [Ponting] sir a lot. I’ve been speaking to our captain a lot because I know him. The only thing they tell me is whenever the opportunity knocks, you have to be ready and take it with both hands. So that’s what I tried to do,” Shedge said.“It’s just sometimes some batters get good balls and they get out. But my only intention was to spend as much time as I could. And that, I think, made things easier as I progressed through the innings.”Despite being his side’s best batter and getting it to a competitive 163 on a two-paced wicket, Shedge took responsibility for the loss.“That 7.5-metre length was difficult to play. I think it was a bit two-paced because of the grass and the black soil. And I think at the end of the day, if we would have saved some runs here and there, we would have ended up winning the game. But I put my hand up. I think I should have stayed there because I was set. And if I would have let that ball go [from Kagiso Rabada], things would have been different,” Shedge said.Published on May 04, 2026 #Suryansh #Shedge #stayed #longer #set](https://i0.wp.com/ss-i.thgim.com/public/incoming/s7dydp/article70937916.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/VIS_2885.JPG?ssl=1 "Suryansh Shedge: Should have stayed longer because I was set Spending time in the middle was the mantra for Suryansh Shedge, whose 57 off 29 balls had temporarily seemed to have dragged Punjab Kings out of the woods on Sunday.The visitor eventually lost by four wickets against the Gujarat Titans, but Shedge, having waited for long to pounce on an opportunity, got much-needed gametime.“I wouldn’t say I was waiting.
