The 2016 Perth

broadcaster of the tournament.

FOX SPORTS is the
biggest golf broadcaster in Australia via its extensive coverage of the PGA
TOUR; European Tour; Web.com Tour; Asian Tour; LPGA and Ladies European Tour,
along with magazine-style programming such as "The Golf Show" and "Golfing
World."

European Tour
Productions will produce its "best in class" broadcast live and in HIGH
DEFINITION across all four days from 13:00 to 17:00 Perth time and 16:00 to
20:00 AEST.  

The commentary team will
be hosted by FOX SPORTS’ Brendon Julian with expert commentary from Warren
Humphreys, Ossie Moore and Paul Gow.

David Rollo, Vice
President, Director of Golf at IMG, the event owner and promoter, added:
"We are delighted to welcome FOX SPORTS as our domestic broadcast partner."
 

"There is a great
synergy with their extensive year-round coverage of the European Tour and the
opportunity to broadcast to the eastern states in prime time and push back the
finish times on Saturday and Sunday until 5pm local time is hugely exciting."

The Perth International
will be distributed by European Tour Productions and Asian Tour Media and will
broadcast more than 2,000 hours of coverage to over 400 million homes worldwide
across more than 40 different broadcasters.

The field will be
headlined by 2010 Open Champion Louis Oosthuizen along with defending champion,
