After losing PGA Tour and DP World Tour rights, Sky Sport secures LIV Golf and Asian Tour rights from 2026, offering around 600 hours of live golf coverage.
Following the loss of exclusive broadcast rights for the DP World Tour and PGA Tour in German-speaking regions to Telekom’s Magenta TV from 2026, Sky Sport has now secured the rights to LIV Golf and the major tournaments of the Asian Tour from 2026. Sky Sport will broadcast 30 events from these two tours, totaling approximately 600 hours of live television coverage.
Sky Responds to Rights Loss by Joining LIV Golf and Asian Tour
Hans Gabbe, Senior Vice President Sports Rights & Commercialization at Sky Deutschland, is pleased that Sky Sport will hold long-term rights to all four men’s Major tournaments, the five women’s majors, key women’s events, and now the LIV Golf League and Asian Tour rights as well. He states, “The global schedule of LIV Golf and its unique team and individual competition format give 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 top players in the world.”
The partnership begins on Friday, January 9, 2026, with live coverage of the “LIV Golf Promotions 2026” qualifying event at Black Diamond Ranch in Florida, where an international field competes for three coveted wildcard spots for the LIV Golf League 2026 season. Among the participants are German pros Dominic Foos, Max Kieffer, Max Rottluff, and Austrian Matthias Schwab. Sky Sport Golf will broadcast the LIV Golf Promotions daily from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM live.
With the LIV Golf League and the Asian Tour alongside over 1,000 hours of live coverage annually, Sky Sport continues to offer an extensive golf program to its customers. Broadcasts of the DP World Tour and PGA Tour tournaments will be available on Magenta TV starting January 15, 2026. Golf fans wanting to watch weekly live coverage and major tournaments will need subscriptions to both services.
