Here are a few highlights from CES’s opening day.
Twitter & The PGA
Today Twitter and the PGA announced a deal to live stream parts of PGA tournaments. This is not the first time Twitter has lived streamed PGA events as last year it streamed the FedExCup Playoffs, but this new deal is more substantial. This deal allows Twitter exclusive rights to live stream parts of 31 PGA tournaments across what’s left of the 2016–2017 season.

Roku Ads
In an age of more companies and sites cramming more ads on their service Roku reconfirmed its dedication to never having more ads on its home screen.
In a message to its advertisers Roku today announced, “There will only ever be one ad shown at a time, so you’ll never be competing with other brands for the viewer’s attention.”
