TOUR Championship

ATLANTA — The PGA Tour season concludes at East Lake Golf Club for the Tour Championship this week, as the top 30 players look to take home the FedEx Cup.

Here is everything you need for the Tour Championship: a preview, full TV schedule, streaming schedule, and complete list of first-round tee times.

Tour Championship Information

Where: East Lake Golf Club (Par 70, 7,346 yards)

When: Aug. 24-27th

Purse: $75 million ($18 million to the winner)

Defending Champ: Rory McIlroy

Tour Championship Preview

The final event of the 2023 season is here as the PGA Tour looks to crown a FedEx Cup champion at the Tour Championship. Players will compete for a $75 million purse, where the winner will take home a whopping $18 million.

This week is different from the BMW Championship and FedEx St. Jude Championship. Players start with strokes depending on where they finished on the points standings. Scottie Scheffler will start at 10-under, Viktor Hovland at 8-under, Rory McIlroy at 7-under, Jon Rahm at 6-under and so on.

East Lake Golf Club is a doozy. Multiple par-4s stretch beyond 450 yards, and there are only two par-5s on the course. Keeping it in the fairways will be imperative. Water comes into play on some pivotal holes, so avoiding the penalty areas will be a crucial component to hoisting the FedEx Cup trophy.

McIlroy sits in a strong spot entering the week. Last year, he came from behind and waltzed past Scheffler to win his third FedEx Cup. With nine straight top-9s and his game in form, can the Northern Irishman close it out in Atlanta again?

Scheffler fell short last year, but did he learn his lesson?

Hovland is coming off a historic 61 at Olympia Fields to win the BMW Championship, and he looks dialed in this week. Can he go back-to-back?

Xander Schauffele plays East Lake better than anyone in the field. Only Tiger Woods plays this course better historically. Schauffele won in 2017 and has finished in the top seven in the past six seasons.

So many intriguing storylines are here in Atlanta as the top players in the world will battle it out at East Lake. Of course, they will need to beat the heat too.

2024 Masters leaderboard: Max Homa stars, Bryson DeChambeau holds alongside Scottie Scheffler after Round 2

It may -- or may not -- be a three-horse race to the finish at augusta national with scheffler, dechambeau and homa out in front of the field.

He wasn't the headliner coming into the week, hell, he wasn't even the headliner in his own grouping, but Max Homa finds himself center stage heading into the weekend at the 2024 Masters. Playing alongside Tiger Woods the first two days, the Californian put together a sensational effort and finds himself in a share of the lead at 6 under alongside Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau.

Homa is naturally the underdog of the three Americans atop the leaderboard. Scheffler has the form, DeChambeau has the power, but that won't render Homa without advantages of his own over the weekend as a new secret weapon of his has emerged at Augusta National.

"I'd like to maintain this outlook I have on how I'm playing golf," Homa said. "Good shot, bad shot, doesn't really matter. Did I go through my process; did I commit to my shot? And once it takes off, I might as well close my eyes. I'd like to see if I can continue to do that this weekend. I think that's something I would like to take with me going forward.

"... Just having a bit of moxie, I guess. I feel like I showed it the last couple days, especially [Thursday] the first few holes playing with Tiger in front of a lot of people at the Masters and played some great golf. So, I know I have that one in me. I'd like to see if I have the mental discipline for a whole week. I'm going to hope for that one."

The 33-year-old was brilliant next to his childhood hero across the first 36 holes, thanks in large part to this discipline. Putting the finishing touches on a first-round 67 Friday morning, Homa experienced a quick turnaround for his second round and found red figures once again in the form of a 71.

He got a front row seat to Tiger's 24th consecutive made cut , but Woods also got a front row seat to Homa's major coming out party.

"He's got all the talent in the world," Woods said of Homa. "I got a chance to play with him at the Open Championship at St. Andrews, and his ball flight, as solid as he hits it, it's just a matter of time before he starts winning in bunches. I saw it up front; he doesn't really mishit shots. That's something you just have to do around this golf course."

Homa has certainly done that and as a reward will enter the weekend in a major championship not only with a chance to win but with his name atop the leaderboard. Just recently cashing his first major top 10 at the 2023 Open, where he entered through the backdoor, Homa has never been one to take the direct route.

He found his footing on the professional level later than his peers. It took him time to figure things out. But once he got the experience, there was no denying him. He has been a gamer on the U.S. Presidents Cup team and a lone bright spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team. Homa has won big-time tournaments at major championship venues like Riviera and Quail Hollow. 

He has done just about everything there is to do in the game except contend in major championships. Homa will check that box off this weekend, that is for sure, and if this mental discipline and moxie of his persists, he may well check off another.

Watch the final two rounds of the 2024 Masters continuing Saturday as Round 3 will air live from 3-7 p.m. on CBS. You can also stream the entire round with  Masters Live  as we follow the best golfers in the world through Augusta National with  Featured Groups , check in at the famed  Amen Corner  and see leaders round the turn on  holes 15 & 16 . Watch live on  CBSSports.com , the  CBS Sports app  and  Paramount+ .

2024 Masters leaderboard, Round 2

T1. Max Homa, Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler (-6): What an immense group. There's a little bit of everything for everyone among the leaders. Scheffler is going to über steady, DeChambeau is going to be a show, and Homa is going to be a bit of an unknown. What we do know is these three guys are certainly playing the best golf as Scheffler ranks first from tee to green, DeChambeau ranks first in ball striking and Homa ranks first in greens in regulation. 

T4. Nicolai Højgaard (-4): The young Dane is holding tough thanks to some serious scoring upside. Højgaard has carded 11 birdies along with seven bogeys and 18 pars to get himself in the mix in his Masters debut. He had gotten as low as 6 under on Friday, but a pair of dropped shots over his last two means that he will feature in the chasing pack and not the leading.

T6. Collin Morikawa, Cameron Davis (-3): Morikawa has been average in 2024, largey because his iron play has been lackluster. It has been much improved this week -- fifth in strokes gained approach -- but a new putter in the bag has been the true difference-maker. The two-time major champion gained nearly three strokes putting while posting his second-round 70.

"This is exactly where I'd want to be," Morikawa said. "Obviously, I'd rather be a little lower and closer to the lead, but for right now, after I've been playing the past kind of month, I'm very, very happy. It feels like I have control of the golf ball, and that's the biggest thing. My irons have been holding me back, and normally that's not the case. It's kind of nice to just hit some quality golf shots."

7. Ludvig Åberg (-2): The only man to break 70 on Friday was the man who is making his major championship debut. Åberg had everything rolling in his second round as he ranked first in ball striking and seventh in strokes gained putting en route to a 3-under 69. Making six birdies, the young Swede filled it up on a day few did. He now finds himself inside the top 10 and in with a chance to become the first debutant to win the Masters in 45 years.

"Me and Joe [Skovron] talked about [hitting away from pins] quite a lot today and just tried to give ourselves chances," Åberg said. "You would prefer to putt from 40 feet than chip from 12. I think a lot of those times we're not necessarily trying to go for the pin, we're just giving ourselves chances, especially when the conditions are tough."

T8. Cameron Young, Tommy Fleetwood, Cameron Smith and four others (-1): Thirty-six of the last 37 Masters champions were inside the top 10 at the halfway point, meaning this group is still very much alive. Only five strokes off the pace, a number of major championship stalwarts find themselves with a conceivable path to Butler Cabin. Fleetwood has gone 72-71 across the first two days and is well-suited for the weekend test. He's got a couple major championship scoring records, but those performances have come too late in the competition.  

T15. Xander Schauffele, Patrick Reed, Matt Fitzpatrick and four others (E): Consider Schauffele lurking. The world No. 5 hasn't been all world the first two days, but he has been good enough to give himself a chance heading into the weekend. He's got four birdies and four bogeys to go along with a whole lot of pars which are never a bad thing in major championships. The bad news is he will not have the luxury to par Augusta National to death given the deficit. 

T22. Tiger Woods and Eric Cole (+1): Woods put on a short-game clinic the first two days. Getting up-and-down from just about everywhere throughout Augusta National, the five-time champion not only made the cut for a record 24th consecutive time, he gave himself a chance to post a really quality result. Woods has hit 22 fairways through 36 holes, his best mark at the Masters since 1999 (!), but the iron play has not been vintage Tiger-like; it's has been holding him back from going under par.

"I have a chance going into the weekend," Woods said. "I'm here. I have a chance to win the golf tournament. ... I got my two rounds in. Just need some food and some caffeine, and I'll be good to go."

T24. Brooks Koepka, Tyrrell Hatton, Patrick Cantlay and three others (+2): Koepka will need a big one tomorrow, but it's not out of the realm of possibility. He looks very close after two rounds of 73 and will just need to piece the entirety of his game together for a memorable Moving Day. After struggling most of the season on the greens, the five-time major champion took a big step with the putter on Friday.

Rahm rolls in another

The defending champion gets another one when it matters the most. Making birdie from down below on No. 16, Rahm should make his way into the weekend. 

Rahm rolls one in

That's a big one from the defending champion. Jon Rahm makes birdie on the par-5 15th to get back inside the cut number at 5 over. He stands there alongside the likes of Viktor Hovland and Joaquin Niemann as well. There is no room for error.

Rahm now outside the cut line

Welp, the defending champion is in danger of missing his first cut at the Masters. A 3-putt double bogey has Jon Rahm at 6 over and one outside the cutline with four holes to play. The good news is he now steps to a par 5, but the bad news is it is still windy as hell.

Scheffler doesn't get lucky this time on 13

After somehow not finding Rae's Creek on Thursday, Scottie Scheffler finds it on Friday. Our leader is wet on the par-5 13th and will be scrambling for par to remain one clear of Bryson DeChambeau and Max Homa who are in the house. Not many low scores out there, but Matt Fitzpatrick is one of them hanging tough at 2 under.

Bryson gets in at 6 under

The first-round leader shoots 1-over 73 in Round 2 and finds himself in a share of the clubhouse lead with Max Homa. Where he stands heading into the weekend is very dependent on what Scottie Scheffler does who is 7 under through 11. Bryson was great again, but he missed a number of putts that were holed yesterday — the main difference.

Rory wet on 11

The par 4 is nearly playing to an average of 5 and it's because of shots like that from Rory McIlroy. From the middle of the fairway, McIlroy hits a wall of wind and his ball gets pushed into the pond lining the front left of the green. He hopes to save bogey which would put him at 2 over for the tournament. Looks like the cutline is settling at +5 so he should be safe of that. Should.

Scheffler jumps into a share

Two birdies in his last three holes have Scottie Scheffler in a tie for the lead at 7 under. The world No. 1 bombed a drive down the 10th setting up a wedge approach from a flat lie. He took advantage with a sensational approach and another birdie to tie Bryson DeChambeau who is in some trouble on 16.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Golf has a ratings problem.

The week-to-week grind of the PGA Tour has essentially become No Need To See TV, raising serious concerns about what it means for the future of the game.

Now comes the Masters, the first major championship of the year and traditionally a ratings behemoth.

If Augusta National produces its usual stellar numbers, it could be an unmistakable sign that the PGA Tour’s ongoing rift with the upstart LIV circuit is causing more and more casual viewers to tune out.

“It’s certainly one possibility,” Masters chairman Fred Ridley said Wednesday on the eve of the opening round. “Certainly the fact that the best players in the world are not convening very often is not helpful. Whether or not there’s a direct causal effect, I don’t know. But I think that it would be a lot better if they were together more often.”

LIV Golf, armed with the seemingly limitless resources of its Saudi backers, has doled out billions of dollars to lure some of the game’s best players away from the established PGA Tour — an impressive list that includes reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm and five-time major winner Brooks Koepka.

Even though the two sides reached a merger agreement 10 months ago, there is little sign that they are close to working out all the fine print. Which means the best players from each tour only get together a few weeks a year, leaving a pair of watered-down circuits for viewers to chose from the remainder of the year.

Increasingly, it would seem, the ratings show many have decided to tune out altogether.

— The final round of the PGA Tour’s Phoenix Open drew just 2.38 million viewers, a stunning 35% plunge from the previous year, according to Sports Media Watch.

— The Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill was watched by 2.29 million on its closing day, a 30% dip from 2023 and the tournament’s worst fourth-round number in seven years.

— A riveting finish at The Players Championship couldn’t move the needle, its average of 3.53 million viewers representing a 15% slippage from a year earlier. In fact, the ratings for all four rounds of the Players were down from their 2023 levels.

It’s not like all those lost viewers have simply switched the channel to LIV, which is seeking to spice up a staid ol’ sport with 54-hole tournaments, shotgun starts, loud music and a team competition within each event.

The upstart circuit — which so far has failed to land a major TV deal, leaving it far down the dial on The CW — barely registers in the ratings with viewership numbers generally in the low hundreds of thousands.

PGA Tour player Peter Malnati, who won the Valspar Championship three weeks ago, believes all the talk about money in the PGA-LIV showdown has turned off many fans.

“People are just sick of the narrative in golf being about, you know, contracts on LIV, purses on the tour,” he said. “They want to see sport, they want to see people who are the best in the world at what they do, do it at a high level and celebrate that, celebrate the athleticism, celebrate the achievement.”

Malnati said some of his fondest memories growing up were watching Michael Jordan lead the Chicago Bulls to an NBA championship and Tiger Woods’ record-setting victory at the 2000 U.S. Open.

“I didn’t care one iota what Jordan’s contract was,” Malnati said. “I didn’t care one iota what the winner’s check at that U.S. Open was.”

He surmises that nothing has changed with today’s fans.

“Obviously, this is a business, and to the top players who drive a lot of the value in this business, we’ve got to compensate them fairly,” Malnati said. “But I think we’re doing that above and beyond, and the narrative, the storylines, the conversation needs to come back to the product on the course and what we do.

“No kid dreamed when they were watching Jordan dreamed of having his salary,” he went on. “They didn’t care about that. They dreamed of being in that moment, hitting that shot. I think that’s what our fans care about, too, and that’s what they want to see.”

Of course, there’s another issue at work here. While no one doubts the skill of today’s top players, neither tour has a mesmerizing figure such as Jordan or Woods, someone who really moves the needle.

Scottie Scheffler may be the world’s top-ranked player, but he can walk down nearly any street in America without being recognized.

Compounding the issue, the first three months of the PGA Tour season have produced a string of nondescript winners, from Grayson Murray to Austin Eckroat to Stephan Jaeger. Some great storylines, to be sure, but more suited to the hard-core fan than the drop-in viewer.

This is Masters week, however, which has never had any trouble drawing eyeballs to the screen.

All the top players are at Augusta National, and millions will be watching when the green jacket is handed out Sunday evening.

By Monday, when the numbers are calculated, everyone should have a better idea just how much the PGA-LIV feud has contributed to the dwindling viewership all those other weeks.

As golf comes together for the Masters, a chasm still divides the sport

golf tour championship tv

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Golf’s biggest buzzword on the eve of its biggest tournament has nothing to do with technique or equipment or any of the superstars converging this week on Augusta National . The topic du jour is sustainability — or, rather, the perceived unsustainability of the current landscape, which has the world’s best pros competing on separate tours, their much-anticipated alliance still up in the air , and a sport enjoying surging participation but fearing a decline in fan interest.

“Things need a correction,” Rory McIlroy, one of the faces of the PGA Tour, said last week in Texas, “and things are unsustainable.”

“And it needs to happen fast,” Bryson DeChambeau, the LIV Golf star, said in Florida. “It’s not a two-year thing. It needs to happen quicker rather than later just for the good of the sport. Too many people are losing interest.”

While there’s more money than ever flowing through the sport, the dueling pro circuits are fighting for relevance. They’re tweaking and overhauling their business models in hopes of unlocking a return on investment, trying to funnel unprecedented sums of money to their players while still building profitable businesses. Meanwhile, a growing chorus is calling for some form of reconciliation.

This week, 13 LIV players will compete at the Masters with their PGA Tour counterparts, distinguishable only by the LIV team gear they’ll be sporting on golf’s most hallowed grounds — Sergio García, the Fireball; Bubba Watson, the RangeGoat. And for four days, fans will be reminded both of what today’s game isn’t — a unified tour where the best players consistently play against one another — and what they hope it might again become.

The sustainability discussion is two-pronged: Can the sport remain relevant and engaging to fans in its fractured state? And is the sport economically viable enough to support the current pace of spending?

“I just think with the fighting and everything that’s went on over the past couple years, people are just getting really fatigued of it, and it’s turning people off men’s professional golf,” McIlroy told reporters last week. “And that’s not a good thing for anyone.”

More than 10 months have passed since the PGA Tour announced plans to partner with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund , which owns LIV Golf. The sides blew past a Dec. 31 deadline and continue to work through details, but no deal is imminent.

LIV Golf continues to pour money into personnel on and off the course, even as its product has yet to reach a critical mass, particularly in the United States. And the PGA Tour responded to LIV’s flurry of activity by going on its own spending spree — with new expenses seemingly outpacing new revenue streams.

Because the game’s top players haven’t competed against one another in an individual event since last year’s British Open, fans have endured lackluster tournament fields and forgettable Sunday finishes. While LIV’s linear TV ratings aren’t publicized, LIV officials say their numbers on the CW Network are up 40 percent from last year and they’re pleased with early streaming viewership. The PGA Tour’s TV figures, which includes a much larger audience domestically, are down more than 15 percent.

“Ratings fluctuate from year to year,” said Sean McManus, head of CBS Sports. “As we all know, to a large extent, it depends on who is on the leader board and how close the tournament is. … But the advertisers seem happy, the sponsors seem happy, so it’s a little early to predict where there is a trend out there on the ratings.”

Neither circuit has seen its biggest stars shine on a weekly basis — last weekend’s winners were 22-year-old Akshay Bhatia on the PGA Tour and South African Dean Burmester for LIV — and the headlines focus on the off-course intrigue and the sport’s uncertain future.

“We talk so much about how important it is for players to be in the right place mentally, and I just think there’s an epidemic of distraction on the PGA Tour, whether it’s greed or trying to solve problems that are almost unsolvable, however you want to put it,” said Brandel Chamblee, a Golf Channel analyst. “I just think they’re hugely distracted.”

After shifting its business away from the nonprofit model, the tour now has to pay taxes, reward players who want more money and answer to investors who seek a return — in addition to TV executives and advertisers who expect a product that will reliably attract a huge audience.

PGA Tour officials have put together a plan that is not wholly dependent on the PIF following through on its early investment plans. The tour took on a $1.5 billion investment from a collection of U.S. sports owners known as Strategic Sports Group ; the amount could double. That money helped the tour launch PGA Tour Enterprises, which will oversee all of its commercial ventures.

“Prior to creating the structure of PGA Tour Enterprises and taking on outside investment, we’ve always had in our previous structure this natural conflict between an organizational objective to maximize player earnings with growth investment,” said Jay Madara, the tour’s chief financial officer. “I liken it to meeting payroll this month [or] this quarter and not having anything left over for investment, if you will. … If there were things that made sense strategically that created long-term returns, there wasn’t patient capital for that.”

According to its most recent tax filings, the tour saw $1.9 billion in revenue in 2022, compared with $1.87 billion in expenses — and both figures have steadily risen over the years. The tour has high-dollar commitments — $4 billion due from sponsors through 2035 and $5 billion in media rights through 2030 — but also has taken on new expenses.

With an ambitious plan to offer golfers an equity stake in the tour and with tournament purses that have more than doubled over the past decade, tour officials have been trying to create new revenue streams and expand existing ones. While its broadcast rights deals run through 2030, the organization plans to open its own 70,000-square-foot production studio next year, which will enable the tour to create and distribute more of its own content.

The tour is also looking to generate more revenue from its weekly tournaments and has overhauled its event funding formula. The tour relies on local organizations to run most of its tournaments but makes money by staging six events on its own — and could take on more. The tour recently acquired a golf cart company and a logistics outfit, which will make it easier and more cost-effective to host tournaments.

One of its most audacious efforts to balance the books: The tour informed event organizers this week that they’ll soon be on the hook for a hosting fee — $250,000 for full-field events and $500,000 for the signature events next year, and twice those amounts beginning in 2026. The tour also expects organizers to kick back a percentage of hospitality sales — 1 percent next year and increasing to 2.5 percent in 2027.

Tour events traditionally have involved a philanthropic component, and while the new initiative has created fears that these fees will eat into charitable donations, tour officials said they’re confident that contributions will not suffer.

“It is something that is important to our tradition, honor and legacy. It’s something we have to balance as we move forward, as well, in terms of our new structure,” Madara said.

LIV, thanks to its deep-pocketed Saudi benefactors, does not appear to face the same economic pressures, with officials saying they’re financially ahead of schedule.

“The critical piece for us is the creation of new value through all of this,” said Jed Moore, a senior LIV consultant. “People have misunderstood the investment into players. They’ve misunderstood the investment in the Asian Tour. They’ve misunderstood why golf needed to find a way to create that new value. Sustainable economics in sports — it’s become front and center because it’s now an asset class.”

LIV officials view their product similar to Formula One — fewer events, with top-tier athletes globe-trotting between major cities. And one key cornerstone: a team-based format that LIV hopes will inspire fan loyalty and drive value.

While LIV owns a 75 percent stake in each of its 13 teams, they function as independent entities and create revenue as each sees fit. Moore said some are already profitable. None is close to reaching maturity as an asset, he said, but someday they could take on investors or be sold outright.

“Can you imagine what the Golden Bears would have been worth if Jack [Nicklaus] played in a form of LIV in his heyday? Arnie’s Army, the Big Easys, the Great White Sharks?” he said. “Imagine those teams.”

While the LIV product has been slow to catch on with golf fans in the United States, officials have been pleased with the interest they’ve seen in places such as Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia.

LIV’s season debut in Mexico marked its highest TV numbers to date — 432,000 watched on the CW for the final round, and more than 3.5 million streamed some portion of the three-day event on YouTube or LIV’s app. While not as lucrative to advertisers, the direct-to-consumer streaming options are a valuable metric to LIV officials, who say they’re targeting a younger audience. (The final round of last year’s Masters, won by Jon Rahm, averaged more than 12 million viewers.)

And while many thought LIV’s days were numbered when the PIF agreed to partner with the PGA Tour last June, LIV has only kept building. Signing Rahm before this season was a major coup, and this week LIV is hiring four senior-level executives and working on its 2025 schedule.

Even LIV’s biggest detractors (see: McIlroy, Rory) have come to reluctantly accept its place in the golf ecosystem. LIV launched in 2022 with no corporate signage at its events, but this year it has already announced more than 20 global partnerships, including with Panini and Google Cloud. Its teams have separately inked deals with more than a dozen corporate sponsors.

LIV officials say the plan was never to replace the PGA Tour, just as Formula One isn’t trying to replace U.S.-based auto racing circuits. They think the tours can coexist — different leagues coming together for a major championship, akin to the Super Bowl or World Series.

Left unsaid: While LIV tries to expand and the PGA Tour adopts a new business plan, what becomes of a weary fan base? The sport’s participation numbers have never been higher — some 45 million Americans swung a club last year, according to the National Golf Foundation — and while professional players have never been richer, the fans have been left wanting more.

“Right now, we are in the disruption phase,” Phil Mickelson, among the first to bolt for LIV, said last week, “so we are in the middle of the process. And when it’s all said and done, it’s going to be a lot brighter. But while we go through it, it’s challenging. But we’ll get there.”

The 2024 Masters is finally here. The best men’s golfers from the PGA Tour and LIV Golf are ready to kick of a new major season this week at Augusta National Golf Club . Here’s everything you need to know about the 2024 Masters schedule, including online streaming details, TV times and more.

How to watch the 2024 Masters

This year’s Masters will once again be a tournament unlike any other. While the PGA Tour and PIF have called a truce, they haven’t yet finalized an agreement. So once again the stars of the PGA Tour and LIV Golf will face off against each other for the first time of the year at Augusta National.

Last year during his winning campaign at Augusta, Jon Rahm was one of the leading figures on Tour. Since then, he left to join LIV, so the Masters will be the first time in 2024 many fans get to see Rahm in action.

On the PGA Tour side, World No. 2 Rory McIlroy will once again attempt to capture his elusive first Masters win. If he does, he’ll finally complete the career grand slam.

But he’ll have stiff competition in the form of World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler . Scheffler, the 2022 Masters champion, is as hot as a player can be heading into the year’s first major. He’s straightened out his putting and put together big wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship.

The TV coverage for the 2024 Masters will be shared between ESPN and CBS, with ESPN airing the first two rounds on Thursday and Friday, and CBS taking the third and final rounds on the weekend.

Extensive streaming coverage of the 2024 Masters will be available online via ESPN+ , Paramount+, Masters.com, the Masters app and the CBS Sports App. You can watch simulcasts and featured group coverage during all four rounds. Masters.com and the Masters App will also feature “scoring, interactive player tracking, video highlights and features, in-depth tournament news coverage, ‘Every Shot, Every Hole’ and ‘My Group,’ which serves as a personalized featured group. IBM Watson will provide descriptive text and audio AI commentary for all 20,000+ ‘Every Shot, Every Hole’ videos.”
