Masters returning to eir Sport
eir Sport viewers will continue to enjoy live coverage of The Masters from Augusta National as eir Sport today announced the renewal of its broadcasting rights to the flagship major championship.
The first major or the year is steeped in history and tradition and Irish viewers can enjoy all four days of competition from Augusta National as well as the Par 3 contest.
The Par 3 contest allows competitors the opportunity to relax ahead of the main event and curtain raiser will kick start eir Sport's coverage of the 81st Masters in 2017 on Wednesday, April 5. Live coverage of the Masters itself begins on Thursday, April 6 and will run until the close of play on Sunday, April 9.
Danny Willett walked away with the coveted Green Jacket in 2016 but Irish fans will be hoping Rory McIlroy or Shane Lowry can succeed him as Masters Champion in April.
“We are honoured to continue our live coverage of the Masters on eir Sport," Brian Quinn, Operations Director at eir Sport commented.
"Golf fans in Ireland look forward with great anticipation to the year’s first major and seeing Augusta National in full bloom each April is always worth the wait.
"We see the Masters as the pinnacle of the golfing year and we are thrilled to be able to bring this to our customers."
eir Sport is available free to eir broadband customers in the Republic of Ireland as part of the 6 channel eir Sport pack.
