After losing the PGA Tour and DP World Tour rights, Sky secures the rights for LIV Golf and the Asian Tour from 2026, offering around 600 hours of live golf coverage.
Following the loss of exclusive broadcasting rights for the DP World Tour and PGA Tour in German-speaking regions to Telekom’s Magenta TV from 2026, Sky Sport has now secured live broadcast rights for LIV Golf and the main tournaments of the Asian Tour starting in 2026. Sky Sport will televise 30 events from both tours, totaling approximately 600 hours of live golf coverage.
Sky Responds to Rights Loss by Joining LIV Golf and Asian Tour
Hans Gabbe, Senior Vice President Sports Rights & Commercialization at Sky Germany, expressed enthusiasm about Sky Sport holding long-term broadcast rights for all four men’s Major tournaments, the five women’s Majors, key women’s tournaments, and now the LIV Golf League and Asian Tour rights. He stated: ‘The global schedule of LIV Golf and the unique team and individual competition format give 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 top players worldwide.’
The partnership will commence 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. German pros Dominic Foos, Max Kieffer, Max Rottluff, and Austrian Matthias Schwab will be among the players. Sky Sport Golf will broadcast the LIV Golf Promotions live daily from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
Extensive Annual Live Coverage with LIV Golf League and Asian Tour
With the LIV Golf League and Asian Tour plus over 1,000 hours of live coverage yearly, Sky Sport continues to offer an extensive golf portfolio. Coverage of DP World Tour and PGA Tour tournaments will be available on Magenta TV from January 15, 2026. Golf fans wishing to follow weekly live golf and major tournaments on their devices will need to subscribe to both services.
