Sky and golf’s PGA Tour have agreed a four-year extension to their long-standing partnership in the UK and Ireland through to the end of 2029.
The deal follows recent extensions to golf rights agreements by Sky with the Ladies European Tour, DP World Tour, USGA, and Augusta National.
It means Sky Sports retains rights to all golf Majors, the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup, as well as the year-round men’s and women’s tours for at least the next four years.
Under the new agreement, Sky Sports will continue to exclusively broadcast all FedExCup regular season events, including The Players Championship, the FedExCup Playoffs, and Tour Championship across each season.
The partnership also includes live coverage of the 2026 and 2028 Presidents Cup. In addition, Sky Sports will continue to show the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Champions.
New this year, PGA Tour Studios is partnering with Sky to provide direct access to Tour content, additional camera feeds, remote replay capabilities, and technical resources for each event. This collaboration extends to the PGA Tour’s new World Feed, in which Sky talent will be featured throughout the Tour’s international broadcast in 2026.
Jonathan Licht, Chief Sports Officer at Sky, said: “This renewed partnership with the PGA Tour reinforces our long-term commitment to bringing the very best live golf to customers year-round for at least the next four years. It adds to extensions of key partnerships this year, further strengthening our unrivalled golf offering.”
“We’re excited to continue expanding our partnership with Sky to deliver PGA Tour action to fans in the UK and Ireland,” said Norb Gambuzza, Executive Vice President of Media at PGA Tour.
Sky and the DP World Tour recently agreed a four-year contract extension that will see the broadcaster remain the home of the Ryder Cup and DP World Tour until at least the end of 2029 in the UK and Ireland. Discover more here.
