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 home for live coverage beginning in 2026. Deutsche Telekom has secured the broadcasting 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 tournaments.
300 Days of Live Golf on MagentaTV
The new rights package includes approximately 300 days of live golf annually, spread across two new dedicated golf channels—MS Golf 1 and MS Golf 2—launching in January 2026. MS Golf 1 will show full tournament coverage, while MS Golf 2 will offer additional content such as player features, current stories, and historical highlights. On-demand content will also be available. Coverage kicks off on January 15 with the Sony Open in Hawaii and the Dubai Invitational. The full-year programming will be included at no extra cost for all MagentaTV and MagentaSport subscribers.
“Golf has found a new home at MagentaTV. With this package, we offer Germany’s most comprehensive live golf coverage ever. From the first tee shots to the final putts, we’ll present every tournament like never before—live, informative, and with a modern storytelling approach,” said Arnim Butzen, Head of TV at Telekom.
Sky Retains the Majors
Despite losing a large portion of golf coverage, Sky will continue to broadcast all Major tournaments in the coming years. This includes the most prestigious events in men’s and women’s golf, such as the Solheim Cup and all five women’s Majors. To follow weekly golf action and the biggest tournaments, fans will need subscriptions to both MagentaTV and Sky.
