The return of the most exciting time in the golf season has arrived. What’s more, the most pivotal event in the sport is back to its normal spot in the schedule as the beauty of April will surround Augusta National Golf Club once again this week. The 2021 Masters is set to be a star-studded affair with a loaded field featuring most of the best golfers in the world. Dustin Johnson will be defending the green jacket — his first and the only one captured in November — while most others will be looking for their first this week.
While attending the Masters is a dream for many, simply being able to watch golf on the grandest stage of them all is an incredible treat each year, and we here at CBSSports.com are thrilled to bring you wall-to-wall coverage of the Masters throughout this week.
CBS Sports offers extensive, week-long coverage across all its platforms with its traditional 18-hole broadcast coverage beginning with the third round on Saturday and final-round action on Sunday. Jim Nantz, in his 36th consecutive year covering the Masters, serves as host for the 34th time. Three-time Masters champion Sir Nick Faldo, on the 25th anniversary of his third victory, joins Nantz in the 18th tower as the lead analyst. Nantz and Faldo are joined by CBS Sports’ incredible golf team as detailed below.
Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth and Jon Rahm are among the top names looking to take down Johnson and claim a green jacket. Thomas and Spieth are coming off recent big-time wins, while Rahm hopes to continue celebrating the birth of his son with a victory at Augusta National. Spieth is the only one of the trio to capture a Masters Tournament before.
Enough talking about it. Here’s how you can watch as much Masters as possible throughout the week. Be sure to stick with CBS Sports for live coverage throughout and download the CBS Sports App to watch Masters Live on your mobile device.
