After losing PGA Tour and DP World Tour rights, Sky Sport secures broadcasting rights for LIV Golf and the Asian Tour from 2026, offering around 600 hours of live golf.
Following the loss of exclusive broadcasting rights for the DP World Tour and PGA Tour in German-speaking regions to Magenta TV by Telekom starting 2026, Sky Sport has now acquired the rights to LIV Golf and key tournaments of the Asian Tour from 2026. Sky Sport will broadcast 30 events from both tours, totaling approximately 600 hours of live golf coverage.
Sky Responds to Rights Loss with Entry into LIV Golf and Asian Tour
Hans Gabbe, Senior Vice President Sports Rights & Commercialization at Sky Deutschland, is excited that Sky Sport will hold long-term broadcasting rights for all four men’s Major tournaments, five women’s Majors, all important women’s tournaments, and now also the LIV Golf League and the Asian Tour. He states: ‘The global schedule of LIV Golf and its unique team and individual competition format offer fans access to some of the biggest golf stars and great venues. Our customers can look forward to innovatively produced golf events and many of the most exciting and best players in the world.’
The partnership begins on Friday, January 9, 2026, with live coverage of the qualifying event “LIV Golf Promotions 2026” at Black Diamond Ranch in Florida, where an international field competes for three coveted wildcard spots for the LIV Golf League 2026 season. German pros Dominic Foos, Max Kieffer, Max Rottluff, and Austrian Matthias Schwab will compete. Sky Sport Golf will broadcast the LIV Golf Promotions live daily from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Extensive Live Golf Coverage with LIV Golf League and Asian Tour
With the LIV Golf League, the Asian Tour, and more than 1,000 hours of live coverage annually, Sky Sport will continue to offer its customers a comprehensive golf program. Coverage of DP World Tour and PGA Tour tournaments will be available on Magenta TV starting January 15, 2026.
