The Masters, golf's prestigious tournament, will commence on April 6, 2026. Rory McIlroy, who recently achieved a career Grand Slam, aims to become only the fourth player to win consecutive titles. Scottie Scheffler, a two-time Masters champion, is the favorite, while Bryson DeChambeau comes off recent victories in LIV Golf. Notably, Tiger Woods will miss the event for the second year due to a DUI charge, and Phil Mickelson will also be absent for personal reasons, marking the first time since 1994 that neither will compete. The tournament maintains its tradition of a limited field of 91 players. Viewers can catch the action starting at 1 p.m. ET on Prime Video, transitioning to ESPN at 3 p.m. on weekdays, and CBS on weekends. The Masters will also feature innovative streaming options, including enhanced stats on Amen Corner.
