SiriusXM's exclusive golf channel, SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio, available nationwide on satellite radios and on the SiriusXM app, will broadcast more than 30 hours of coverage from the PGA Show Outdoor Demo Day at the Orange County National Golf Center and PGA Merchandise Show at the Orange County Convention Center, where the PGA of America will launch its 100-day Centennial celebration.

Among the highlights for the week are two special "SiriusXM Town Hall" events that will take place on the PGA Forum Stage at the Convention Center.

On Wednesday, Jan. 27 at 2 p.m. ET, SiriusXM will present a "Teachers Town Hall," focused on the important role of technology in instruction and featuring five of the game's most esteemed instructors – Hank Haney, Claude Harmon III, David Leadbetter, Jim McLean and Golf Channel's Michael Breed – and moderated by Debbie Doniger.  The teachers – who are all SiriusXM hosts – will answer questions from the audience and share their thoughts and methods for using technology to better help players improve their games.  The show will be recorded and air nationwide on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio Wednesday night at 9 p.m. ET with multiple replays.

On Thursday, Jan. 28 at 12:30 p.m. ET, legendary college football coach Lou Holtz will sit down for a special SiriusXM Town Hall, moderated by PGA of America CEO Pete Bevacqua, that will focus on leadership and coaching.  Bevacqua was a walk-on for the Notre Dame football team when Holtz was head coach.  They will talk about Holtz's career on the sidelines, his love for golf, and coaching methods that crossover from one sport to the other, before opening it up to questions from the audience.  The show will be recorded and air nationwide on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio on Sunday at 11 a.m. ET.

Holtz will also host his regular SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio show, Holtz in One, live from the convention center on Wednesday at 1 p.m. ET.
