Starting January 2026, MagentaTV will broadcast PGA, DP World, and Champions Tour events. Majors remain with Sky.
Golf fans in Germany will see a major shift in TV coverage starting in 2026. Telekom, through its platform MagentaTV, has secured exclusive broadcasting rights for PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Champions Tour events. 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 Live Golf on MagentaTV
The new rights package brings around 300 days of live golf annually across two new dedicated channels: MS Golf 1 and MS Golf 2, launching in January 2026. MS Golf 1 will feature full tournament coverage, while MS Golf 2 will offer additional content such as player features, stories, and historical highlights. The programming kicks off on January 15 with the Sony Open in Hawaii and the Dubai Invitational. All content will be available at no extra cost to MagentaTV and MagentaSport subscribers.
“Golf has found a new home on MagentaTV. With this package, we’re offering Germany’s most comprehensive golf live coverage ever—from the first tee shots to the final putts, live and modern,” said Arnim Butzen, Telekom’s Head of TV.
Sky Retains the Majors
Despite losing a large portion of its golf portfolio, Sky will continue to broadcast all Major Championships in the coming years. This includes the biggest events in both men’s and women’s golf, such as the Solheim Cup and all five women’s Majors. As a result, golf fans who want full coverage will need subscriptions to both MagentaTV and Sky.
