Sky Sport will broadcast LIV Golf and Asian Tour events live from 2026, offering around 600 hours of live golf coverage.
After losing the exclusive broadcasting rights for the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour in the German-speaking region to Telekom’s Magenta TV starting in 2026, Sky has now secured the rights to LIV Golf and the key tournaments of the Asian Tour from 2026. Sky Sport will broadcast 30 events from both tours, totaling approximately 600 hours of live coverage on television.
Sky Reacts to Rights Loss by Joining LIV Golf and Asian Tour
Hans Gabbe, Senior Vice President of Sports Rights & Commercialization at Sky Deutschland, is pleased that Sky Sport will retain long-term broadcasting rights for all four men’s Major tournaments, the five women’s Majors, all important women’s tournaments, and now also the rights to the LIV Golf League and the Asian Tour. He states: ‘The global schedule of LIV Golf and its unique team and individual competition format offer fans access to some of the biggest golf stars and great venues. Our customers can look forward to innovatively produced golf events and many of the most exciting and best players in the world.’
The partnership begins on Friday, January 9, 2026, with live coverage of the qualifying event “LIV Golf Promotions 2026” at Black Diamond Ranch in Florida, where an international field competes for three coveted wildcard spots in the LIV Golf League 2026 season. Among the participants are German professionals Dominic Foos, Max Kieffer, and Max Rottluff, as well as Austrian Matthias Schwab. Sky Sport Golf will broadcast the LIV Golf Promotions daily live from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
With the LIV Golf League and the Asian Tour, and over 1,000 hours of live coverage annually, Sky Sport will continue to offer its customers a comprehensive golf program. Broadcasts of DP World Tour and PGA Tour tournaments will be available on Magenta TV starting January 15, 2026. Fans who want to follow golf live weekly and watch major tournaments on their devices will need to subscribe to two services in the future.
