The deal also features expanded highlights, player interviews and tournament recap shows.<\/p>\n<p>The PGA Tour and Xumo first teamed up in March 2018 for the first ad-supported PGA Tour OTT channel on smart TVs. The channel on Xumo provides viewers live and VOD programming. It is available on LG\u2019s Channel Plus service and across the Xumo distribution network, including Hisense, Sharp, VIZIO and Panasonic connected devices in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Van Engen, senior VP of content programming and acquisitions at Xumo, said: \u201cThe sports genre on Xumo has experienced explosive growth, and with the addition and expansion of the PGA Tour\u2019s content and channel on Xumo, we\u2019re able to deliver even more live and catch-up programming that fans demand. In fact, Xumo saw a 65-percent increase in on-demand viewing in Q3 of 2018 alone as viewers relived full tournament recap experiences leading up to the Tour Championship last September.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luis Goicouria, the PGA Tour\u2019s senior VP of media, added: \u201cAs we strive to provide PGA Tour fans with content wherever they are, Xumo has been a great distribution partner.
