With four days of intense golf coming your way in the form of the 2026 Masters Tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, you may be wondering where you can watch 91 golfers compete for a famous green jacket. (And a major championship, of course.)
The answer is: Lots of places.
CBS Sports, Paramount+, the ESPN app and Prime Video will get you there, but you can also watch for free at the official Masters website or in the Masters app. Here’s what you need to know.
When is the Masters?
Although there are some preliminary events, the Masters begins on Thursday, April 9, and goes through Sunday, April 12.
Coverage on Thursday and Friday goes from about 8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Eastern, although post-round highlights air later in the evening. Coverage over the weekend goes from about 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern.

Where to watch the Masters
The Masters will be live streamed at Masters.com and in the Masters app, and also at CBSSports.com and in the CBS Sports app.
Paramount subscribers can watch live on Paramount+, which will carry two additional hours of pre-golf coverage on Saturday and Sunday.
On CBS Sports, Masters coverage will span four channels that include Featured Groups, Amen Corner, Holes 15 and 16, and Masters on the Range.
The ESPN app will feature a variety of coverage on all four days, and Prime Video will carry early-round coverage on Thursday and Friday as well as various perspectives from the course throughout the event.
Can you watch the Masters online for free?
Yes, you can find the Masters online at Masters.com or in the Masters app, and also at CBSSports.com or in the CBS Sports app.
If you’re looking to add additional viewing options, Paramount+ Premium costs $13.99 per month, ESPN Unlimited costs $29.99 per month, and Prime Video comes with a Prime membership at $14.99 per month or $139 per year.
Just keep in mind that each additional streaming subscription you add is another recurring charge in your budget, so make sure you have the space for it — or make a plan to cancel it after the Masters are over. More than half of U.S. adults (55%) said they were planning to significantly decrease their subscriptions this year in order to save money, according to a NerdWallet survey.
It’s a good time to revisit your 50/30/20 budget, in which 50% of your money goes to needs, 30% to wants and 20% to debt repayment and savings. Streaming subscriptions fall squarely into the “wants” category.
If your heart wants golf, you may need to make a little room by trimming things like lunch takeout or afternoon coffee runs.
