Is The Masters on TV? Live stream, channel and how to watch Augusta golf major

The Masters returns at Augusta National with Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau leading the contenders to win the green jacket.

Scottie Scheffler is the defending champion having won his second Masters title last year and the world No 1 is aiming to become the first back-to-back champion since Tiger Woods in 2002, though slipped back with a lacklustre third round.

McIlroy seized control in his bid to win an elusive Masters and complete the career grand slam, with the Northern Irishman fighting back from a difficult first round to take a two-shot lead into Sunday.

He looks set to duel with a familiar foe in DeChambeau in the final group, with the American two shots back and hoping to deny McIlroy as he did at the US Open at Pinehurst last year.

Here’s everything you need to know:
