All Kiwis can now watch Lydia Ko for free

Lightbox Sport is proud to announce that it will give ALL Kiwis FREE access to watch NZ’s own - Lydia Ko – live or on-demand at the LPGA - ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open 2015.  

The LPGA - ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open 2015 - is a four day tournament which runs live from 17.00hrs (NZT) Thursday 19 February to late Sunday 22 February 2015 on WORLDGOLFPASS. Everyone can gain this free access to watch Lydia Ko (and other great players such as Michelle Wie) in action via the special code: LYDIAKO.

To activate the code fans must go to www.worldgolfpass.com and click on the subscribe button.  Select the ‘Single Week Pass’ package and enter LYDIAKO in the promo code field on the left hand side.  Once the subscription is completed, fans will have access to both WORLDGOLFPASS and PGATOURLIVE with one username and password.

This is the first time in New Zealand a ‘paid-for-view-provider’ will deliver free access to a sport; and to everyone who wants it. “This is genuine access for all, because if you have broadband you can have WORLDGOLFPASS and PGATOURLIVE; and now you can watch Lydia Ko for free!” says Tim Martin, Managing Director of Lightbox Sport.

“We have said from the outset that every Kiwi deserves to watch our very own Lydia Ko play. A young and inspiring player, such as Lydia Ko, has the power to attract new audiences and grow the game of sport here. We are now delivering on that promise. And by doing so, we hope to provide the game of golf in New Zealand a much-needed fair go too. More sports fans watching more sport, that they want, has always been our promise. And we will continue to deliver on this.”

The LYDIAKO code will also allow everyone access to PGATOURLIVE for the four promotional days outlined above (www.pgatourlive.com). Here, golf fans can also watch the PGA Tour – Northern Trust Open - and other home-grown players such as Danny Lee and Tim Wilkinson; live or on-demand. This is a ‘no strings attached’ free offer. No credit card details will be requested; only an email address will be needed, in order to activate the free online offer.
