While fans won’t be able to attend the 102nd PGA Championship in San Francisco the first weekend of August, broadcaster CBS will use technology to give those watching from home a more intimate viewing experience.
The network will use live drones and fly cams both on the practice range and during competition, it announced Wednesday. It will also use “4D Replay” on the 14th hole, as it did in at the 2018 championship in Bellerive, to “offer a 180-degree look around the player to provide a thorough breakdown of a players’ swing.”
4D Replay allows producers to zoom in, spin, and pan around at any point during a golfer’s drive. The fly cams will stretch nearly 700 feet and move up and down to provide unique angles on the practice range.
