The Korea Golf Tour (KGT) announced the bidding schedule on the 10th for selecting a broadcasting rights operator.

KGT stated that it will use a "restricted competitive bidding method" and aims to select a preferred negotiation candidate by the 28th.

Forming a consortium (joint supply body) is also allowed.

Companies wishing to participate in the bidding must visit the Korea Professional Golfers' Association (KPGA) office and submit the necessary documents by 3 PM on the 21st. The results of the first document screening will be individually notified on the 22nd. After the second evaluation (PT) on the 27th, the preferred negotiation candidate will be announced on the 28th.
