Update: Results of the 2024 Masters Tournament
Scottie Scheffler earned his second Masters victory in three years, further solidifying his position as the world’s No. 1 ranked golfer. Scheffler finished the tournament at 11-under, outpacing his nearest competitor by four strokes.
The 27-year-old Texan was tied with several top contenders until he went on a decisive surge with three consecutive birdies starting at the eighth hole, cementing his lead. His final round brilliance included seven birdies, guiding him to a closing round of 68.
However, the weekend was not without its challenges for Scheffler, both environmental and mental. While all the golfers had to deal with unruly weather, Scheffler also had his wife, Meredith, on his mind, as she was unable to attend due to the impending birth of their first child. Earlier in the week, he had openly expressed his plans to leave the tournament if she went into labor, adding a layer to his victory.
Beyond the green jacket and the accolade of joining an elite group of those who have won the Masters multiple times, Scheffler also won $3.6 million. This victory at Augusta National is a continuation of a remarkable season for Scheffler, including wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship.

Tournament Overview
The 2024 Masters Tournament marks the tournament’s 88th year. The impressive 72-par course in Augusta, Georgia, has welcomed golf’s highest-tier athletes from around the globe to compete in four rounds through its signature fairways — each hole named after the trees planted along its course, paying homage to the Augusta National Golf Club’s origins as a plant nursery.
Not only does the winner earn a major payday, but they are also given the most coveted prize in golf — the Green Jacket.

Cable Providers and Streaming Services
Since the broadcasting rights are limited to two channels, figuring out how to watch the Masters Tournament 2024 may feel restrictive. However, there is a wealth of platforms at your disposal to transport you straight to the Augusta National Golf Club for you to witness the action firsthand.
Cable
As mentioned, the Master Tournament airs exclusively on ESPN and CBS — and you will need access to both to watch every round. ESPN is set to air Round 3 of the Pre-Tournament matches as well as Rounds 1 and 2 of the Masters itself, but Round 3 and the championship round will only be aired on CBS. If you already have cable or are looking to get it, speak with your provider and ensure that your package includes both channels for the fullest coverage possible.
Streaming
Since the Masters Tournament coverage is divided between ESPN and CBS, it’s imperative to have access to both their streaming counterparts, ESPN+ and Paramount+. Choosing one over the other may be fine for casual viewers or sports fans looking to introduce themselves to the world of golf, but if you’re a true golf enthusiast, you’ll want access to both services.
Below, we listed out some streaming services that you can use to get the access you need.
Masters Official Site
While the Masters website doesn’t offer comprehensive streaming coverage, it does give casual viewers live access to five holes per round as well as other featured groups and broadcasts. The site’s Leader Board, however, is a great resource that every fan should know about. Its structured and searchable interface allows you to keep track of every player’s progress.
YouTube TV
For a straightforward approach to the Masters Tournament, consider YouTube TV. The platform boasts over 100 live channels, including both ESPN and CBS. YouTube TV often offers discounts and deals, so be on the lookout. It also comes with a 7-day, free trial, so you’ll be able to capture all the Masters’ televised moments.
DIRECTV STREAM
Proudly offering “No dish, contract, or installation,” DIRECTV STREAM can be a welcome choice to any golf enthusiast hoping to get in on the action of the Masters Tournament. The Entertainment and Choice packages, however, won’t include CBS Sports Network, so be sure to opt for Ultimate or Premier to get the best viewing experience possible. The service also offers a five-day trial.
Fubo
With affordable packages, Fubo can give you instant access to ESPN and Paramount+ with SHOWTIME. Best of all, the option comes with a seven-day, free trial, which is more than enough time to catch each televised round.
Hulu + Live TV
If you’re looking for a larger bundle that will also cover your sports needs, Hulu + Live TV could be a great option. The bundle includes access to ESPN and CBS and comes with over 90 other channels, as well as Disney+.
Sling TV
With the right add-ons, Sling can be the perfect way to watch the Masters Tournament 2024. The base plan, Sling Orange, automatically comes with access to ESPN. Pairing that service with Paramount+ with SHOWTIME will have you all set for the final fairways.
Stream Responsibly With StreamSafely
As you prepare to watch this year’s Masters Tournament, consider the responsibility that comes with choosing your streaming options.
StreamSafely encourages you to prioritize legal and secure streaming alternatives. Whether you’re looking forward to the Masters or are eager to stream live sports later this year, we want to ensure that your viewing experience is both enjoyable and free from the risks associated with piracy.
