DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Nov. 24, 2025) – The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) announced today a new multi-year media partnership with Eclat Media Group, one of Asia’s leading sports media companies, and its flagship platform SPOTV, the No. 1 sports channel in Korea for the past six years. Beginning next season, LPGA Tour events will be broadcast on SPOTV’s linear channels and digital platforms in Korea, giving fans in one of the LPGA’s top global markets unparalleled access to their favorite players and storylines throughout the year.
“Korea is one of the LPGA’s most influential and deeply connected fan communities,” said LPGA Commissioner Craig Kessler. “The contributions of Korean players, partners and media have been enormous and through this partnership with Eclat Media Group and SPOTV, we’re committed to honoring that legacy and elevating it. With SPOTV’s unmatched platform across TV, print and digital, we’ll give Korean fans unprecedented access and further elevate the global spotlight on our athletes.”
The agreement also includes an investment in marketing and editorial support across Eclat’s ecosystem — including SPOTV, Golf Digest Korea and its extensive portfolio of digital, print and social channels — significantly expanding coverage of LPGA athletes, tournaments and original content. SPOTV’s golf portfolio already features many of the game’s most prestigious global properties, further solidifying its role as the home of world-class golf in Korea.
"As the leading hub for global sports content in Asia, SPOTV is the ideal media partner as the LPGA seeks to strengthen its presence across the region," said a SPOTV representative. "Through Golf Digest Korea, SPOTV NOW, and our social media channels with over 17 million followers, we have consistently delivered world-class golf content to fans across Asia and beyond. Going forward, we will continue to invest in tournament broadcasts and original golf content to enhance the viewing experience and elevate the brand value of both the LPGA and SPOTV."
Building on the LPGA’s new multi-year media partnership with U-NEXT in Japan, this agreement marks further progress in the LPGA’s commitment to grow women’s golf worldwide — expanding reach, deepening access and delivering richer storytelling to fans around the world.
