The Masters: Where and when to watch it on TV in the UK

For one year only (hopefully), the first men’s major championship of the year is the last – and there’s only one place to watch all four rounds live in the UK.

The COVID-delayed 2020 Masters Tournament gets underway at Augusta National on November 12, with Tiger Woods looking to defend the Green Jacket he won in such memorable fashion in April 2019. 

It’s set to be a Masters with some differences. For one, don’t expect the azaleas, rhododendrons and other fauna to be in full, colourful bloom. There will also be no patrons on-site to create the roars that have become such an iconic part of the tournament experience. That’s to say nothing of the early finishing times to compensate for the reduced daylight in Georgia at this time of year.

It will, however, still be the Masters – and viewers in the UK can watch all four days of it live on Sky Sports Golf. 

The subscription broadcaster has been the home of the tournament in the UK for several years and, once again, will beam all of the action directly into British homes.
