Masters Tournament 2026: How To Watch Live On TV Today...
The 2026 Masters Tournament is underway at Augusta National, and golf fans across the U.S. are searching for ways to watch the action live on TV today. The tournament, which runs from April 6-9, concludes with today's final round, where a new champion will be crowned.
Coverage begins at 10:00 AM ET on CBS, with additional early-round streaming available on ESPN+ and Masters.com. The final pairing is expected to tee off around 2:30 PM ET, with the winner receiving the iconic green jacket in the evening ceremony.
This year's tournament has drawn extra attention due to a tight leaderboard featuring defending champion Scottie Scheffler, rising star Ludvig Ã…berg, and fan favorite Tiger Woods, who made the cut for a record 24th consecutive time. Woods is not in contention but remains a major draw for viewers.
Augusta National's strict broadcast rules mean CBS holds exclusive TV rights, with no alternate coverage on other major networks. However, Paramount+ subscribers can stream the CBS feed, and Masters.com offers featured group and hole coverage without a login.
The Masters consistently ranks as one of the most-watched golf events annually, but today's search spike reflects heightened interest in the dramatic final round. With three players within two strokes of the lead, viewers are tuning in to see if Scheffler can defend his title or if a new champion will emerge.
Local golf clubs and sports bars across the country are reporting increased traffic as fans gather to watch the conclusion. In Augusta, Georgia, ticket prices for today's round reached record secondary market levels before selling out completely.
Weather could play a factor in today's broadcast, with a 30% chance of afternoon thunderstorms that might delay the finish. Tournament officials have contingency plans to complete play on Monday if necessary, though they hope to avoid the first Monday finish since 1983.
For cord-cutters, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, and FuboTV all carry CBS in most markets and offer free trials. The Masters app also provides live scoring and limited video highlights throughout the day.
