CBS Sports ended up in the rough at the 2019 PGA Championship when bandits made off with nearly $1 million in TV cameras.

The daring theft of 64 cameras and other equipment from one of professional golf’s biggest tournaments unfolded in the wee hours of May 20, after rain had left the grounds of Long Island’s notoriously difficult Bethpage Black course muddy.

A security guard actually witnessed people milling around in the dark with large black duffel bags, and then loading the bags into vehicles, but took no action, CBS Sports claims in Brooklyn Federal Court papers.

The next morning, CBS Sports employees found dozens of cameras gone. They surmised the caper was neither quick nor quiet. Instead of properly releasing the cameras from their tripods, the ham-handed robbers ripped them from the stanchions, leaving broken equipment scattered about, according to the legal filing against the California-based security company that was supposed to be guarding the equipment.

The thieves “would have needed substantial time to steal a large number of separate pieces of bulky camera equipment in this manner” and “would have created substantial noise and should have attracted the attention of [Contemporary Services Corp.] personnel,” CBS Sports charged.

The 101st PGA Championship, the second of golf’s four “majors,” had ended dramatically only hours before the heist, with winner Brooks Koepka staving off a late charge by Dustin Johnson.

CBS Sports accuses the CSC of negligence and wants $987,243.74 in damages. CSC did not return messages.
