The broadcasts will start on January 15, 2026, and MagentaTV will become the new home for live golf on television, offering a total of 131 events across two channels.
Gregor Biernath: “Something New and Exciting is Happening for Golf”
Gregor Biernath, one of the most recognized golf voices in the German-speaking region, is moving from Sky to MagentaTV. He will lead the new expert team, supported by golf professionals Florian Zunker, Bernd Ritthammer, and Max Kramer. Biernath commented on his move: “The entire team immediately gave me the feeling that something new and good for golf is emerging here. We can innovate and refresh golf coverage at MagentaTV.” He also praised the new team as a “cool editorial team” and described it as a “really good mix.”
The commentator lineup has also been refreshed with new faces. Michael Born, previously known for handball and football commentary at DAZN, will join Herbert Gogel and Stephan Gandel to commentate golf events. Additionally, Holger Speckhahn, known from ice hockey coverage on MagentaSport, will also be part of the live broadcasts.
