Very late in reporting, but I had heard rumors about this and I just wanted to shout to the world, “I’m not crazy!” 🙂

GolfNow.com(who I use quite often) has been purchased by Comcast for the sum of $40 mil.  They presently sell tee times to 1.5 million customers at around 1,500 locations nationwide.

Unlike Comcasts horrible Fandango purchase (Fancast anyone?) this is a slick move on their part.  All they need to do is link Golfnow up with Golfchannel and it’s a win.  With the merging of the two companies, golfnow and golfchannel both stand to see increased web traffic and with luck increased revenue.

Since Golfchannel is located in Orlando, not 10 minutes from my home, I can only hope that more and more central Florida golf courses hop on the Golfnow.com choo-choo train and in turn offering cheaper tee times for everyone’s favorite Orlando Golf Blogger! 🙂
