World Golf Hall of Fame member Fred Couples, the 1992 Masters Champion and a two-time PLAYERS Championship winner, is returning to the SiriusXM airwaves to host The Fred Couples Showexclusively on the SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio channel. The new season will premiere on Tuesday, January 30.
The SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio channel is available to listeners nationwide on satellite radios (Sirius channel 208, XM channel 92), on the SiriusXM app as well as on a wide variety of connected devices including smart TVs, Amazon Alexa devices, Apple TV, Sony PlayStation, Sonos speakers and more.
“I’ve really enjoyed the SiriusXM specials we’ve done and I’m excited to embark on a brand new season,” said Couples. “SiriusXM is a great forum for a guy like me who is interested in everything about golf – and a lot of other sports. And we’ve got a lot to cover in 2018 – Tiger, the game’s young guns, and of course the big stories in the NFL, NBA, MLB, college and more.”
Couples continues to be one of the most popular figures in golf and he will share a perspective on the game that few others can. He is also a die hard sports fan, as comfortable talking about the NFL, NBA, MLB and college sports as he is covering his own sport, and will eagerly delve into topics and talk to guests from beyond the world of golf.
“Fred remains one of the biggest personalities in the game and we’re thrilled to have him on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “SiriusXM is the perfect place for Fred to do the kind of program that truly showcases his personality and can cover his varied interests. Our listeners are getting access to one of the game’s all-time greats, and they are going to enjoy his opinions and insights on golf and so much more.”

His resume includes 15 PGA TOUR wins, including memorable victories in the 1992 Masters Tournament and the PLAYERS Championships in 1984 and 1996.
