How to watch the 2026 Masters: TV schedule, streaming, tee times

The 2026 Masters will be played Thursday-Sunday, April 9-12, at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, where the best golfers in the world will battle for the green jacket. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the Masters all week long, including a 2026 Masters TV schedule, streaming options and tee times once they are released.

How to watch the Masters

Major season has officially arrived, and the first event on the calendar is widely-considered the most popular golf tournament of them all: the Masters.

Players who successfully win the Masters and its green jacket live forever in golf history. They also get a lifetime exemption into the tournament and an invite to the annual Masters Champions Dinner, which defeding champion Rory McIlroy is hosting this year.

About McIlroy. He’s still the World No. 2, but his game has been a little bit off to start the season. No matter. The man who completed the career Grand Slam at last year’s Masters comes in as the fourth betting favorite to win.

The top betting favorite is World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler already has a win this season, and despite struggling on the course recently, he’s a two-time Masters champion who can win even without his best game.
