Golf Waits To See Who Would Run Discovery-Warnermedia

Bloomberg broke the Sunday stunner: barring a last minute issue, AT&T will spin off its Warnermedia empire and merge with Discovery.

While most of the hardcore golfers have moved on from the ranks of AT&T leadership, Discovery’s David Zaslav is the brains behind the PGA Tour-GolfTV partnership and his company owns Golf Digest.

It remains unclear who will lead the new combined company, but Zaslav seems the likely candidate and his role as CEO would certainly help the cause of a few golf partnerships.

**Axios reports that Zaslav will oversee the company and Jeff Zucker may hang around to keep running CNN and the Turner sports empire.
