T-Mobile 5G will take coverage of this major sporting event to a new level


T-Mobile is enhancing its 5G coverage at the PGA Championship to make sure that there are no holes in its coverage. The cutting-edge improvements that the carrier is making to its service will help those attending the event at Valhalla Golf Club from May 15–19, and the millions watching on television enjoy an improved “fan experience” thanks to 5G. Those T-Mobile subscribers attending the PGA Championship will be able to take advantage of advanced technology to follow the action. Those watching the television broadcasts will get to enjoy unprecedented viewing experiences thanks to golf’s first 5G private network in the U.S.

For example, 5G will be implemented into a golf broadcast for the first time allowing CBS Sports to deliver to viewers never before seen angles of iconic Hole 13. T-Mobile also notes that by employing “cinematic quality footage,” CBS Sports will be “giving fans more hero shots of their favorite players at Valhalla.” In addition, T-Mobile‘s 5G private network and 5G point-of-view cameras will show practice range coverage on PGA digital and social channels. 

The nation’s second-largest wireless provider adds that during practice range coverage “Coaches and expert commentators provide valuable insights and analysis on the players’ warm-up sessions. Fans will also get detailed stats, including ball speed, apex, curve, distance, and more.”

T-Mobile subscribers attending the PGA Championship will be able to visit a VIP lounge at the event called Club Magenta. In addition to viewing a live Q & A session with T-Mobile athletes like Tony Finau, Wyndham Clark and Max Homa, Club Magenta will provide benefits to T-Mobile subscribers including premium views and complementary phone charging. T-Mobile customers who flash their Magenta Status get Fast Lane access to the Club Magenta tent (net neutrality doesn’t apply to this fast lane), free T-Mobile merchandise (including chairs to use while watching the action on the course) and free Magenta cocktails.

5G is also making a difference in how CBS covers the event. With T-Mobile‘s 5G capabilities, the network doesn’t need to schlep so many wires and cables to the event thanks to wireless cameras that will run over T-Mobile‘s private 5G network. And even without the cables, 5G will allow CBS Sports to obtain transmission speeds similar to what is achieved using fiber. 

Check this out. Using T-Mobile’s 5G private network, and Sony’s PDT-FP1 portable data transmitters combined with the Japanese manufacturer’s ultra-low latency encoders/decoders, glass-to-glass latency (from camera to television screen) will average less than 100 milliseconds. This will open up more capacity so that CBS can use more wireless cameras and cover the event from different angles.

Jeff Price, Chief Commercial Officer of the PGA of America, said, “We’re thrilled to introduce groundbreaking technology to one of golf’s most significant events through this partnership with T-Mobile. T-Mobile has paved the way for unprecedented innovation that will continue to thrill our fans. And this is just the beginning.”
