The most frustrating part of watching golf on TV? 

Ironically, it’s not being able to watch the golf itself. 

PGA Tour telecasts—and even some of golf’s biggest events—are regularly inundated with commercials, turning the viewer experience into a slog. It’s treacherous enough that some folks just DVR the golf and watch it on demand after the last putt has been holed. 

During a typical broadcast window, golf viewers are met with 18 minutes of commercials per hour. Sitting through a three-hour telecast requires nearly an hour of ad-watching. 

Every major sport has commercials. About 25 percent of an NFL broadcast is ads (clocking in at 50 or so minutes). An NBA game, which usually takes no longer than two hours and 30 minutes, has around 43 minutes of commercials.
