TV Ratings: PGA Championship Delivers Win for CBS

Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images CBS won Sunday night with a strong lead-in from the PGA Golf Championship, which ran into primetime and pushed the schedule back by 65 minutes (and preempted CSI: Miami). As a result, fast nationals for the network are approximate, and may slightly adjust later. PHOTOS: CBS' New Season TV Shows: 'Person of Interest,' 'A Gifted Man' and More Big Brother was down 14 percent from last week, and Same Name dipped 6 percent. ABC came in second place in the key 18-49 demo with a 1.4. The CMA Music Festival rated a 1.6, and was down 6 percent in the key demo from last year's telecast. However, it was up 17 percent in total viewers, its second-largest audience in six years. Fox came in third with a 1.2. The Jamie Foxx-produced In the Flow With Affion Crockett premiered soft with a 1.3 for the first hour, and 1.0 for the second. Univision came in fourth with a 1.1, followed by NBC with a 1.0. The first hour of The Marriage Ref was flat, but the second hour was down 10 percent versus last week.
