The Masters is the biggest week of the year for the game of golf, and we’ve got all the information you need, from storylines to tee times to how and where to watch, from TV channels to stream and everything in between.
Intriguing storylines surround many of the tournament’s betting favorites. Rory McIlroy enters the week as the overall favorite at 7-1. If he wins, it would mean completing the career grand slam just before his 30th birthday.
Dustin Johnson (10-1) and Justin Rose (12-1) have been trading off recently as World No. 1, and are each seeking their first green jacket at Augusta.
But there’s no doubt that the biggest crowds of fans will be on hand to watch Tiger Woods, who goes off at 14-1 and is seeking his 15th major. Woods arrived at last year’s Masters in the midst of a comeback; fans didn’t know what to expect. But now he has made every cut since last year’s U.S. Open and seems primed to challenge for a fifth Masters title.
Plenty more contenders will take the stage. Can Jordan Spieth re-channel Augusta National magic, like he always seems to? Can Rickie Fowler win his first major? Can Brooks Koepka win his fourth major in seven starts? Can Justin Thomas cement himself among the game’s very best? And of course, how will Patrick Reed fare in his title defense?
You can watch all of the above play out during TV and streaming coverage throughout the week. Here’s how.
