Major Championship Golf Season Continues at the PGA in Charlotte
NEP is proud to have supported our customers at the PGA Championship in May.
Our teams had mobile units and an extensive range of specialty capture solutions including RF and robotics onsite.
Adam Stouter, Senior Director of Remote Technical Operations for CBS Sports emphasizes to Sports Video Group the importance of strategically placing technology to ensure every angle is captured for viewers during an event of this size.
“We obviously know the course well, but a [production] the size of the PGA Championship is a very different story,” Stouter tells SVG. “Throughout our multiple surveys and visits to the course with our production team and Kerry Haigh [Chief Championships Officer, PGA of America], we were always looking to add technology to find new looks to show the viewers at home.”

NEP continued its long history of supporting the NFL Draft coverage with this year’s production taking place in Green Bay, WI.
Sports Video Group Editorial Director Kristian Hernández detailed the role NEP's specialty capture solutions played in providing reliable RF connectivity and the use of Steadicams and robotic cameras to show many different angles as the excitement of the draft unfolded.
SVG highlighted “one of the most important factors” to a smooth-running show is reliable RF connectivity.
At the core of the production was NEP’s TFC broadcast orchestration platform, seamlessly linking the entire EN1 fleet, Supershooter CBS, Supershooter 5 and Super B (12 mobile units) and enabling efficient coordination across the massive multi-venue production.
