Comedy meets competition once again as Katt Williams returns to the PGA Tour Live broadcast—bringing his unmatched comedic brilliance and love for the game to the mic at the 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis.
Set for Thursday, August 7, and Friday, August 8, at 9 a.m. ET, Williams will join forces with ESPN’s Michael Collins to provide live, on-course commentary for the second straight year. And if their electric chemistry at the 2024 Tour Championship is any indication, golf fans are in for a wildly entertaining ride.
⛳️ Not Just Funny—Katt’s a Real Golfer Too
Williams isn’t just a casual observer on the green—he’s a real-deal golf lover, complete with a 19 handicap and a burning passion for the game.
In a recent chat with The Hollywood Reporter, the Emmy-winning funnyman explained how a rotator cuff injury led to his current handicap rating.
“OK, so I had to establish a handicap when I tore my rotator cuff. So, I came in as a 19 handicap, but I shoot low 80s,” Williams revealed.
“You certainly don’t want to bet me! Eighty-three is a good and gettable score for me all across the country at excellent courses.”
Translation? Don’t let the handicap fool you. Katt can hold his own on elite courses—and probably make you laugh your clubs off while doing it.
Golf Is Life, Literally, for Katt
Beyond the clubs and scorecards, Williams sees golf as a metaphor for resilience, strategy, and self-mastery—a surprisingly philosophical stance for a man known for roasting Hollywood with surgical precision.
“The thing that I like about golf is that it permeates so many different parts of your life,” Williams said.
“It’s not like it fixes everything, but it gives you a new parameter for things. The first four holes not going to your liking? It has the ability to ruin the day, but it doesn’t have to.”
Katt breaks it down in a way only he can—turning double bogeys into life lessons.
“You can fix this front nine, you see? And level this front nine out to where you can still have a good 18.”
Preach.
