More live Masters coverage for UK and Ireland viewers
Sky Sports and Augusta National extend long-standing partnership for Green Jacket event
UK and Ireland viewers will see almost 20 more live coverage of The Masters as part of a new multi-year extension to a partnership between Sky Sports and Augusta National.
The renewed agreement of a long-standing partnership comes on the back of Sky Sports and NOW providing the most comprehensive coverage of the season’s opening major to date.
Record audiences watched Rory McIlroy clinch his maiden Green Jacket, becoming the first-ever European player to win a career grand slam in front of a peak audience of 1.85 million viewers, commanding 37 per cent of total TV viewership.
Rory McIlroy’s win was a ‘standout moment in 2025’
“We’re delighted to extend our long-standing partnership with the Masters Tournament and Augusta National Golf Club, further cementing Sky Sports as the home of golf in the UK and Ireland,” said Sky Chief Sports Officer Jonathan Licht.
“Rory McIlroy’s win in April was a standout moment in 2025 and we look forward to bringing fans even more unmissable drama from Augusta National in the years ahead.”
Under the new agreement, Sky Sports will also air the Masters Par 3 Contest and the Augusta National Women’s Amateur, as well as the Latin America Amateur Championship and Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship.
The 2026 Masters will take place from 6-12 April, exclusively live on Sky Sports and NOW.
