Foxtel Group masters the game with exclusive rights to golf’s most iconic tournament – Foxtel Group has been selected as the exclusive Australian broadcaster of the Masters Tournament, the world’s most prestigious golf tournament.
This marks the first time that all four major golf tournaments – the Masters, U.S. Open, The Open Championship and the PGA Championship – will be broadcast live and exclusive on Fox Sports, available on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.
The new, exclusive rights build on Foxtel Group’s existing broadcast partnership with Augusta National Golf Club, solidifying Fox Sports — available on Foxtel and Kayo Sports — as Australia’s premier destination for comprehensive year-round golf coverage.
Delivering an unrivalled experience for Australian viewers as part of the broadcast, and with five Australians invited to participate in the upcoming tournament, Fox Sports Australia’s Warren Smith and former PGA Tour player Paul Gow will be on-location with expert insights and analysis directly from Augusta National.
This dedicated, live coverage, tailored to local audiences, will be complemented by top-shelf production including a crisp 4K UHD* feed from the storied Amen Corner.
Foxtel Group’s Executive Director – Commercial, Sport, Rebecca McCloy, said:
“We are proud to become the exclusive Australian home of the Masters, one of the world’s most prestigious sporting events. This agreement marks a milestone for Australian fans of the game, who now have a single, exclusive destination to enjoy golf’s biggest and best tournaments. Choosing Foxtel Group as its preferred Australian broadcaster speaks to the strength of our long-standing partnership with Augusta National Golf Club.
“Attracting a broad and highly engaged audience, golf is a core pillar of our sports offering and a top-five sport among our viewership. This prestigious competition aligns perfectly with the premium sports offering that defines Foxtel and Kayo Sports.”
Masters Week begins on 7 April, live and exclusive on Fox Sports, available on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.
