Masters 2026 International TV Channels by Country

The Masters published an official list of international broadcast partners for its 2026 tournament.

The following table identifies selected countries and the corresponding rights holders listed by the tournament.

The official list identifies broadcast partners rather than providing identical start times, packages or access methods for every territory.

For the full country-by-country directory, consult the Masters official Where to Watch page.

How UK Viewers Watched the Masters 2026

Sky Sports was the official broadcast partner listed for the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.

Viewers needed to consult Sky's relevant channels and supported viewing services for specific coverage windows and access requirements.

How Canadian Viewers Watched the Masters 2026

TSN was the broadcaster identified for Canada in the Masters' official 2026 directory.

The supplied official listing does not establish separate CTV or RDS coverage arrangements, so those services are not included here as independently confirmed 2026 partners.

How Australian Viewers Watched the Masters 2026

Fox Sports was the broadcast partner listed for Australia.

This differs from older or generic coverage guides that name Nine Network without establishing its role in the 2026 championship.

Masters 2026 Coverage in Asia

The Masters' official international directory listed FanCode for India, SPOTV for several Southeast Asian markets, TBS and BS-TBS for Japan, and SBS for South Korea.

These arrangements varied by territory, and a platform available in one country should not automatically be assumed to have held rights in neighboring markets.

How to Listen to the Masters 2026 on Radio

The PGA TOUR's 2026 viewing schedule listed SiriusXM radio coverage from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET on each of the four championship days.

Radio coverage provided an alternative for audiences who preferred live commentary without following a television broadcast.

The supplied PGA TOUR schedule does not independently confirm the original SportingSpy draft's references to Westwood One or BBC radio commentary. Those claims have therefore been excluded from this updated guide.

Masters 2026 Tournament Dates and Event Schedule

The Masters championship was contested from Thursday, April 9, through Sunday, April 12, 2026.

The original SportingSpy draft also listed the customary Masters-week activities preceding the competition.

DateTournament activity
Monday, April 6Practice rounds
Tuesday, April 7Practice rounds and Champions Dinner
Wednesday, April 8Practice rounds and Par 3 Contest
Thursday, April 9First round
Friday, April 10Second round
Saturday, April 11Third round
Sunday, April 12Final round

The April 9–12 championship dates are confirmed by the PGA TOUR. The earlier-week activities are retained from the original draft as the traditional Masters-week program.

Final Thoughts on Masters 2026 TV and Streaming Coverage

The 2026 Masters offered US audiences a combination of traditional television broadcasts, Prime Video coverage and dedicated digital streams.

ESPN and Prime Video shared the main early-round broadcast windows, while CBS carried the weekend television coverage. Masters.com, the Masters app and authorized streaming partners provided additional access to featured groups and individual sections of Augusta National.

International audiences relied on region-specific broadcast partners, including Sky Sports, TSN, Fox Sports, FanCode and SPOTV in their respective markets.

This guide preserves the confirmed 2026 viewing arrangements as a reference for the completed championship. For future editions, readers should consult the latest official broadcaster announcements rather than assume the same rights and schedules will continue unchanged.
