How to watch Masters on Thursday
Early on in Masters week, one question was talked about more than any other: can Rory McIlroy finally win his first Masters title?
We will get our first answers to that question in Thursday’s opening round as the 2025 Masters finally begins.
All signs so far are good. McIlroy is on a tear this season, capturing big wins at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and Players Championship. Now he’ll try to triumph at the only major championship he hasn’t won.
You can watch the first round of the Masters on TV via ESPN, which will air coverage beginning at 3 p.m. ET on Thursday. ESPN+, Paramount+, Masters.com and the Masters app will provide extensive streaming coverage starting at 7:30 a.m. ET.
