Sky and the PGA Tour have agreed a four-year extension to their long-standing partnership in the UK and Ireland through to the end of 2029.
This follows recent extensions to rights agreements with the Ladies European Tour, DP World Tour, USGA and Augusta National, resulting in Sky Sports remaining the exclusive home of all golf Majors, the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup, as well as year-round action from the 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 prestigious The Players Championship on the Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass, the FedExCup Playoffs and Tour Championship across each season.

Sky's Chief Sports Officer, Jonathan Licht 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.

"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, PGA Tour Executive Vice President, Media.
