“We are thrilled to have Delta Air Lines aboard as the Official Global Airline of the PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions,” said PGA TOUR Commissioner Jay Monahan. “Golf and travel have always been inextricably connected, and we look forward to partnering with Delta on tailored experiences and bringing PGA TOUR content directly to their customers through their inflight entertainment offerings. ”

All Delta customers will be able to enjoy PGA TOUR content via inflight entertainment, keeping fans connected even at 30,000 feet.

Customers can also expect to see Delta-sponsored PGA TOUR players Patrick Cantlay, Tony Finau, and Stewart Cink featured in digital content on both Delta and PGA TOUR channels.

This agreement builds on Delta's existing support in golf, including its role as a Tournament Partner of the Tournament and sponsor of the Mizuho Americas Open for LPGA. The airline also has ambassador partnerships with players across both men's and women's golf spaces, including Stewart Cink, Tony Finau, Nelly Korda, Michelle Wie West, and Rachel Kuehn.
