Patrick Reed’s attorney has refiled his lawsuit against Golf Channel and analyst Brandel Chamblee in a Florida court and added Golf Channel personalities Damon Hack, Shane Bacon and Eamon Lynch, who also writes for Golfweek.
The suit also now includes Golfweek and its owner, Gannett.
The change from a Texas court to the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida in Jacksonville and the addition of defendants was reported by The Athletic.
The 2018 Masters champion originally filed his $750 million suit in a U.S. district court on Aug. 16. The new filing seeks actual and compensatory damages “in excess” of that amount, according to the report.
