The men’s major golf season reaches its climax at The Masters, with extended coverage from Augusta National live exclusively on Sky Sports.
Sky Sports’ dedicated Masters channel will have round-the-clock coverage from one of the biggest events in the sporting calendar, where Tiger Woods returns to defend his Green Jacket and all of the world’s top players are set to feature.
All four rounds will be broadcast exclusively live from November 12-15 on Sky Sports The Masters, with plenty of extra feeds available during the tournament and a host of bonus content to enjoy throughout the week.
This year’s contest has a new place in the schedule due to the coronavirus pandemic, meaning the key timings are different to what you may previously be used to and ensuring the 2020 edition will be like no other.
Here’s all you need to know to make sure you don’t miss any of the action…
MAIN COVERAGE
The Masters being in November has resulted in the TV coverage starting earlier than ever before, with Featured Groups getting under way from 12.30pm for the first two days ahead of full coverage from 6pm.
Limited daylight means the action will not run through to the early hours like previous years, with an hour-long ‘Live from the Masters’ show looking ahead to that day’s play over the weekend before full coverage from 5pm on Saturday and 3pm for the final round on Sunday.

BONUS ACTION
The Featured Groups option is one of several extra feeds available to watch throughout the tournament, with those marquee players on the red button from 6pm over the first two days, 3pm on Saturday and 1pm on Sunday.
You can follow players’ progress through Amen Corner – Augusta’s signature three-hole stretch – on the red button or for free via the Sky Sports website and the Sky Sports YouTube channel, while there is an extra stream on the red button covering the fourth, fifth and sixth holes.
The 15th and 16th hole feed is also available for all four days, while a one-hour verdict show will be live on Sky Sports The Masters after the conclusion of each round with a discussion of the key talking points from that day.
AND THERE’S MORE…
The entire schedule will be dedicated to the final men’s major of the year, with special documentaries and highlights from the Masters archives, plus a three-hour preview show from Monday to Wednesday to bring you the latest news and interviews from Augusta.
