WFNZ golf show premiers Saturday

Golf returns to the local radio menu Saturday morning with the debut of a two-hour show on WFNZ, 610 AM.

The station had a Saturday morning golf show for several years but is starting fresh with the new program that will air from 10 a.m. until noon on Saturdays.

Hosted by Taylor Zarzour, the e-Golf Show will focus on professional golf, concentrating on the happenings on the PGA, LPGA and Champions tours.

The weekly show will include segments with tour player John Cook and an interview with the previous week’s PGA Tour champion conducted by Greensboro’s John Maginnes, who also works for the PGA Tour Network.

There will be a feature each week on an area golf course along with analysis of trends and happenings in professional golf.

“It’s going to be an up-to-the-minute information show on every tour, particularly the PGA Tour,” said Zarzour, who has hosted various sports talk shows through the Southeast and is the play-by-play announcer for North Carolina women’s basketball.
