Golf Central is The Golf Channel's news program. It was launched in 1995, in the same year as the network it airs on.

A nightly half-hour show, Golf Central features news and highlights from the major golf tours and events of the world, in addition to on-site reports from tournaments.

[edit] Format

The show's format involving anchors varies — sometimes there is just one anchor on the desk for a show; sometimes an anchor is joined by an analyst for tournament recaps; or two anchors will be used. With the recent additions of new talent for the show, the latter format has been utilized more recently. It should also be noted that there is never one mainstay anchor team, as anchor teams vary from night to night.

From Thursdays through Sundays during tournament play, from 9 AM Eastern to 4 PM, one single anchor will give half-hourly updates on current tournament leaderboards.

[edit] Anchors and other contributors

As mentioned earlier, talent on the show varies from night to night, but in the show's rotation are about 10 people who appear on the show in anchor roles. Those people are Tom Abbott, Vince Cellini, Inga Hammond, Kraig Kann, Rich Lerner, Todd Lewis, Iain Page, Steve Sands, Kelly Tilghman and Scott Walker.

[edit] Spin-off

Golf Central has a weekly spin-off — College Central. There is also a separate edition for The Golf Channel's United Kingdom network, titled Golf Central UK. They use the same hosts and reporters as the American version, but it is more adjusted to cover major tours in that specific region, including the PGA European Tour, Ladies European Tour and the Challenge Tour.
