1. New reinforcements
One of the biggest changes to CBS’s product in 2022 can actually be traced back to ESPN. In the new year, the PGA Tour has made the executive decision to assume control of all ‘below the line’ facilities — TV towers, mobile camera units, technical facilities, etc.
2. Drones!
One of Shy’s biggest changes in 2021 was the expanded addition of drones to CBS’s broadcast arsenal. Those cameras helped to produce some of the best shots of the season (including a laugh-out-loud moment with Phil Mickelson at the PGA Championship), and serve a vital role in expanding the viewer’s perception of each week’s venue.
3. Toptracer enhancements
As for the rest of the technology offerings, Shy and co. have worked to improve Toptracer in 2022 by expanding the number of holes with tracer capabilities at each event.
4. A bolder constant leaderboard
The hallmark of Shy’s early efforts at the helm at CBS has been his implementation of a constant, mini-leaderboard. The bug — which lives translucently on the lower right-hand portion of the screen — has quickly become one of CBS’s most popular broadcast elements.
5. Analytics-driven graphics
Professional sports are in the midst of an analytics revolution, and so too is professional sports television. In an effort to capitalize upon that audience, CBS will expand its use of ShotLink data and other advanced statistics throughout its broadcasts, helping to provide broader context behind each shot.
6. Colt Knost!
The biggest golf TV promotion in 2022 belongs to Colt Knost, whose on-course reporting role with CBS is expanding into an every-week endeavor. Knost, a former Tour pro and current host of GOLF’s Subpar podcast, has earned high marks from TV viewers (and some pros) for his insightful analysis and extensive relationships within the pro game.
7. A futuristic new set for Amanda Balionis
Golf fans can wish a tearful goodbye to Amanda Balionis’ on-course cart in 2022. It has been shipped off to the metaverse, where it will be replaced by an augmented reality set — a space-age update that opens the door for tons of creative applications.
