PROMOTE PATRIOTISM ON THE GOLF COURSE WITH SPECIALIZED FLAGS FROM STANDARD GOLF

With the weather warming up and several patriotic holidays around the corner, now is the right time for golf course superintendents in the United States and Canada to think about how best to display their national symbols. Standard Golf has everything a golf course needs to honor military veterans, celebrate patriotic holidays, and display flags correctly.

Honor Your Country’s Heroes

The game of golf can help people in unexpected ways, especially the brave men and women who have served in the military. That’s why the PGA and other organizations continue to bring golf to veterans, helping them to heal and connect with one another. 

Golf course superintendents can further honor our servicemen and women by hosting special military-themed events on their courses. For events like these, it’s essential to display the country’s flag as a sign of honor—it’s a meaningful way to show respect to people who genuinely deserve it.

Celebrate Memorial Day and More

Memorial Day is reserved to celebrating the lives of those who did not make it home. While these unforgotten heroes aren’t here to join their friends for a few rounds of golf, their comrades and families often take to the golf course on this commemorative holiday to reflect, engage with their communities, and shoot a birdie in memory of their buddy or buddies. Golf course superintendents can facilitate this patriotism and reflection with American flags dispersed throughout their course.

American and Canadian superintendents can use their respective flags for a whole host of other events as well. From Independence Day to Canada Day and more, there are plenty of occasions to celebrate each country’s rich history. Superintendents can use club flags in a variety of sizes with theme-matching sticks to make their entire course a representation of a club’s patriotic spirit.

Display Flags Properly

The focus of these holidays and events should remain on both the people—veterans and their friends and families—and the causes that each country’s flag represents. Standard Golf offers event spikes that keep flags upright and in position. These small, inventive devices ensure that no golf course unintentionally commits a disrespectful blunder by allowing the national flag to touch the green.

Golf course superintendents who are ready to honor their country’s veterans, celebrate national holidays, and confidently display their flags should learn more about Standard Golf.

As World Cup arrives in the US, creator-access clauses reshape broadcast rights deals

As World Cup arrives in the US, creator-access clauses reshape broadcast rights deals

FIFA's broadcast strategy for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico represents the most structurally complex rights package in the tournament's history. Deals now span over 220 territories, include a live-streaming partnership with YouTube, and formally embed creator access into rights frameworks for the first time. Meanwhile, Fox Sports' legacy deal — secured in 2015 for $485 million — has become what Observer describes as the broadcast bargain of the century, setting up dramatically higher price expectations in the next rights cycle.

  • 01FIFA secured broadcast agreements in over 220 territories, with a Dallas-based International Broadcast Centre distributing roughly 8,000 hours of additional non-live content, according to FIFA.
  • 02Fox Sports pays $485 million for US rights to a tournament Observer estimates is worth more than three times that figure — making it likely the last major sports broadcast deal secured at a deep discount.
  • 03FIFA's first-ever global creator programme and a preferred-platform deal with YouTube — allowing broadcasters to stream the first 10 minutes of every match plus select full games — mark a structural shift in how rights are packaged.

As the World Cup hits US soil, creator-access clauses move into broadcast rights deals

As the World Cup hits US soil, creator-access clauses move into broadcast rights deals

Fox is broadcasting the 2026 FIFA World Cup for $485 million — a fee industry experts estimate to be less than half the open-market value of the rights. The deal traces to a 2014 backroom concession FIFA made to avoid litigation when it shifted the 2022 Qatar tournament out of summer. As the tournament runs across 104 matches and 16 cities, it is also serving as a live demonstration of where sports media technology, creator economics, and broadcast rights negotiations are all heading simultaneously.

  • 01Fox is paying $485M for rights that industry experts value between $1B and $1.5B, making this one of the most undervalued broadcast deals in sports history.
  • 02FIFA explored rescinding Fox's contract, engaging law firm Paul Weiss, but backed down after Fox produced a roughly 10-page legal defense of its position.
  • 03Creator-access clauses and purpose-built on-site creator studios are entering 2026 broadcast rights frameworks, signaling a structural shift in how sports content reaches audiences.
