Starting January 2026, MagentaTV will broadcast PGA, DP World, and Champions Tour events. Sky retains the Majors.
Golf fans in Germany will have a new home for live coverage starting in 2026. Deutsche Telekom has secured exclusive broadcasting rights for the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Champions Tour through its platform MagentaTV. The deal runs through 2029 and includes 131 tournaments in 2026 alone. Additionally, MagentaTV will air the Ryder Cup in 2027 and 2029. However, Sky will continue to broadcast all men’s and women’s Major championships.
300 Days of Live Golf on MagentaTV
The new rights package includes around 300 days of live golf annually across two newly launched channels: MS Golf 1 and MS Golf 2. These channels will debut on MagentaTV in January 2026. MS Golf 1 will provide full-length coverage of all tournaments, while MS Golf 2 will feature additional content such as player features, highlights, and historical segments. The service kicks off on January 15 with the Sony Open in Hawaii and the Dubai Invitational. All content will be available at no extra cost for MagentaTV and MagentaSport subscribers.
“Golf has a new home on MagentaTV. With this package, we offer Germany’s most comprehensive live golf coverage ever. From the first tee to the final putt, every tournament will be shown live, informative, and in a modern format,” said Arnim Butzen, Telekom’s Head of TV.
Sky Retains the Majors
Despite losing a large portion of golf coverage, Sky will continue to air all Major tournaments in the coming years. This includes the four men’s Majors, the Solheim Cup, and all five women’s Majors. As a result, fans who want to follow both weekly tour events and the biggest tournaments will need subscriptions to both MagentaTV and Sky.
