Gregor Biernath joins MagentaTV, strengthening the new golf team as extensive live broadcasts begin.
After securing exclusive broadcasting rights to the Ryder Cup, the DP World Tour, and the PGA Tour, MagentaTV has now also welcomed a prominent commentator from Sky Sport. Broadcasts start next week, January 15, 2026, with MagentaTV offering a new home for live golf on television, featuring 131 events across two channels.
Gregor Biernath: “Something New and Positive for Golf is Emerging”
Gregor Biernath, one of the most recognized golf voices in the German-speaking world, is moving from Sky to MagentaTV. He will lead the new expert team, supported by golf experts Florian Zunker, Bernd Ritthammer, and Max Kramer. Commenting on his move, Biernath said, “The whole team immediately gave me the feeling that something new and good for golf is emerging here. We can innovate and shake up golf coverage at MagentaTV.” He also described the team as a “cool editorial team” and noted a “really good mix.”
New faces were also sought and found among commentators. Michael Born, previously known for handball and football commentary at DAZN, will join Herbert Gogel and Stephan Gandel in commentating golf events. Additionally, Holger Speckhahn, known mainly as an ice hockey presenter for MagentaSport, will also accompany the upcoming live broadcasts.
