Starting January 2026, MagentaTV will broadcast PGA, DP World, and Champions Tour events. Majors remain with Sky.
Golf fans in Germany will have a new destination for live coverage starting in 2026. Telekom has secured the broadcast rights for the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Champions Tour through its MagentaTV platform. The deal runs through 2029 and includes 131 tournaments in the first year alone. Additionally, MagentaTV will air the Ryder Cup in 2027 and 2029. However, Sky retains the rights to all men’s and women’s Major Championships.
300 Days of Golf on MagentaTV
The new rights package includes approximately 300 days of live golf annually, spread across two new dedicated channels: MS Golf 1 and MS Golf 2. These will launch on MagentaTV in January 2026. MS Golf 1 will air full tournament coverage, while MS Golf 2 will feature additional content such as player features, current stories, and historical highlights. On-demand content will also be available. Coverage kicks off January 15 with the Sony Open in Hawaii and the Dubai Invitational. The golf programming will be included at no extra cost for all MagentaTV and MagentaSport subscribers.
“Golf has a new home on MagentaTV. With this package, we’re offering Germany’s most comprehensive live golf coverage ever. From the first tee shot to the final putt, we’ll show every tournament like never before—live, informative, and with a modern narrative,” said Arnim Butzen, Telekom’s Head of TV.
Sky Retains the Majors
Despite losing a significant portion of golf coverage, Sky will continue to broadcast all Major Championships in the coming years. This includes the men’s and women’s Majors, as well as the Solheim Cup. These prestigious events remain a key part of Sky’s sports portfolio.
Golf fans looking to follow weekly tournaments and the biggest events will need subscriptions to both MagentaTV and Sky to enjoy full coverage.
