LIV Golf announces multi-year TNT Sports broadcast deal starting in 2026
TNT Sports adds LIV Golf League to year-round sports portfolio in the UK and Ireland through new multi-year broadcast agreement.
Golf’s great disruptor has just dropped another bombshell.
LIV Golf is heading to TNT Sports.
From 2026, the breakaway star-studded league will be broadcast live across TNT Sports and discovery+ in the UK and Ireland, in a multi-year deal that firmly plants LIV right in the living rooms of British golf fans.
And make no mistake — this is a huge moment.
All 14 events from the LIV Golf 2026 season will be shown live, starting with a spectacular night-time opener under the lights in Riyadh from 4-7 February.
The league’s expanded calendar will stretch across 10 countries and five continents, including a historic first-ever LIV Golf event in South Africa, plus returning fan favourites in Adelaide, Hong Kong, Singapore, Mexico, Spain, the USA and the UK.
TNT Sports has confirmed it will deliver on-site presentation and wall-to-wall coverage throughout the season, with further broadcast details set to follow in the coming weeks.
It should be noted this new deal with TNT Sports does not in any way impact LIV Golf’s US TV deal with FOX Sports.
Bigger, longer, louder LIV
In another significant shift, LIV Golf events will move to a full four days and 72 holes from 2026 — a clear nod to traditional tournament formats, while still keeping the league’s distinctive team-and-individual twist.
The field will feature 57 players competing across 13 teams, alongside five wildcard entrants, with a roll call that reads like a who’s who of modern men’s golf.
Bryson DeChambeau. Jon Rahm. Phil Mickelson. Dustin Johnson. Sergio Garcia. Joaquín Niemann. Tyrrell Hatton. And rising stars like Tom McKibbin and David Puig.
Whether you love LIV, loathe it, or can’t stop watching it — the firepower is undeniable.
TNT Sports goes all-in on golf
Warner Bros. Discovery Sports Europe has made no secret of how big this deal is for TNT Sports, adding LIV Golf to a premium rights portfolio that already includes the Premier League, UEFA competitions, the FA Cup, UFC, MotoGP and top-level rugby.
Executives described LIV as a “positive addition” packed with “energy” and “world-class players”, promising to bring TNT’s storytelling and production muscle to the league’s refreshed format.
LIV, for its part, hailed the agreement as a “historic moment” and a major step in cementing its presence in one of golf’s most influential markets.
The message is clear: LIV isn’t going anywhere — and now it’s got a heavyweight broadcast partner to match its ambition.
From Saudi nights to British summer golf
The 2026 season begins in Riyadh with all four rounds played under lights, billed as the world’s largest professional night golf tournament, before heading straight to Adelaide — a venue that pulled in over 100,000 fans in 2025.
From there, LIV goes global once again, stopping in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America, before landing in the UK in late July at JCB Golf and Country Club.
Founded in 2021 and launched in 2022, LIV Golf has rewritten the rulebook — and with TNT Sports now on board, the rebel tour has just taken another major step into the mainstream.
Love it or hate it, one thing is certain.
LIV Golf on TNT Sports is going to be unmissable.
