Foxtel, the Australian pay-TV heavyweight, has extended its rights agreement with the Augusta National Golf Club to continue broadcasting the iconic Masters tournament.
The broadcaster will air coverage of the US event, one of golf's traditional majors, across its platforms including Foxtel, Foxtel Now, and Kayo Sports.
The new agreement continues Foxtel Group’s long-term partnership with Augusta National (located in Georgia, US) which spans almost two decades and includes a dedicated channel during Masters week on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.
The deal also includes exclusive coverage of Augusta National’s amateur tournaments.
The 2024 Masters was won by American Scottie Scheffler.
Foxtel holds rights to all four golf majors, including the US Open, the Open Championship (taking place in Scotland over this upcoming weekend), and the PGA Championship.
In addition, the media giant broadcasts international competitions such as the LPGA, European Tour, Asian Tour, Ladies European Tour, Ryder Cup, and the Solheim Cup, as well as domestic competitions from Golf Australia, PGA of Australia, and WPGA.
