Masters 2026: Tee Times And How To Watch Todays Round...

The 2026 Masters Tournament enters its third round today, with tee times beginning at 10:15 AM ET at Augusta National Golf Club. Golf fans across the U.S. are searching for start times as the weekend competition heats up, with several top contenders within striking distance of the lead.

Defending champion Scottie Scheffler will tee off at 12:45 PM ET alongside rising star Ludvig Ã…berg, while current leader Rory McIlroy starts at 1:05 PM ET with Xander Schauffele. The tournament is drawing heightened attention this year as McIlroy seeks his first Masters victory to complete the career Grand Slam.

CBS will broadcast today's coverage from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM ET, with early round streaming available on ESPN+ and Masters.com. Weather conditions are expected to be ideal, with sunny skies and temperatures near 75°F at Augusta, Georgia.

The Masters always generates strong interest, but today's searches spiked as weekend viewers plan their viewing schedules. Many offices and sports bars across America are adjusting Saturday plans around the tournament, which typically delivers dramatic weekend moments.

Augusta National's iconic Amen Corner (holes 11-13) will likely play a decisive role today as players navigate the challenging stretch. Tournament officials moved tee times slightly earlier than yesterday to account for potential afternoon thunderstorms in the forecast.

Fans without cable can stream the action through Paramount+ or the Masters app. The tournament's limited commercial broadcast format and tradition of honorary starters (Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player this year) continue to set it apart from other golf events.

With just four strokes separating the top 15 players, today's round could dramatically reshape the leaderboard before Sunday's finale. The Masters winner will take home $3.6 million from a record $20 million purse.
