The EMC World Cup Golf Tournament was held at the Gotenba Golf Course of the Taiheiyo Club in Shizuoka, Japan from November 15th to 18th, 2001. As the host broadcaster, NHK produced the international signal of the event in HD/SD format, distributed it to many countries worldwide, and broadcasted it live through terrestrial TV, satellite TV, and HDTV. NHK also initiated a new data broadcasting service that provided real-time information about the players. This paper describes the technical features and problems encountered in producing the large-scale HDTV live coverage of the event.
