An important note. Digital was not included.

Soccer has the youngest viewership with an average age of 40.

Quote from Ty Votaw — EVP, Global Business Affairs @ PGA Tour.“When you go to PGATour.com, the median age is 55 and for our PGATour Live (over-the-top network), the median age is 20 years younger than on broadcast,”
