Preliminary Ratings: Sunday 08/10/14

CBS dominated the Sunday night ratings, thanks to two hour of primetime coverage of a tight PGA Championship. The Major golf tournament drew 11.6 million viewers and a 2.4 rating in Adults 18-49, but with it being a live event, expect a significant fluctuation when the final ratings are released, Tuesday afternoon.

The 2014 championship may be the best ratings for the tournament in five years, and McIlroy may just be the person that takes the reigns of golf as Tiger Woods continues to struggle with injuries, in recent years. This is McIlroy's 4th Major in the past three years, including the (British) Open Championship, three weeks earlier.

BIG BROTHER, pushed back to 10 p.m., ET, saw the numbers deflate to under 6 million viewers and below a 2.0 demo rating, but is possible to have a major rebound with the final ratings.

FOX had disappointing results form its TEEN CHOICE AWARDS. The two hour awards show aimed to 10-17 year old, pulled in worse numbers than the animated repeats have, in recent weeks. However, the ratings are near identical to the 2013 show.

ABC - 3.7 million viewers, 0.8 rating in A18-49
CBS - 9.0 million viewers, 2.0 rating in A18-49
