The Masters on CBS is a tradition unlike any other (it's impossible not to read that with Jim Nantz's voice), but the tradition has adapted to today's media landscape, as CBS is not the only place you can watch the 2025 Masters. One of the ways to tune into golf's first major of the year is to be a Paramount Plus subscriber; though there are a few things about that you need to know.

First off, while the Paramount Plus streaming service has a global presence, its coverage of The Masters is only available to US subscribers. That's due to only Paramount Plus offering CBS and CBS Sports coverage, which are only available in the US; UK viewers will find The Masters playing on Sky Sports.

But if you are a US viewer looking for how to watch The Masters this week and are interested in Paramount Plus as an option, here is everything else you need to know on how to watch it on the streamer.

How to watch The Masters on Paramount Plus

In order to watch the live coverage of The Masters on Paramount Plus, you must sign up specifically for the Paramount Plus with Showtime plan. This subscription option is the more expensive of the two available Paramount Plus plans, costing $12.99 per month or $119.99 for a full year's subscription, but in addition to live Masters coverage, it is ad-free and includes additional exclusive TV shows and movies. Showtime programming like the new series MobLand, along with the normal lineup of Paramount Plus originals and library content are also available with the ad-free tier.

You can get a seven-day free trial of Paramount Plus with Showtime, allowing you to sample the service and catch the Masters for free before the service starts billing you (it will do so automatically if you do not cancel). Discount codes are also available occasionally.

The Masters on Paramount Plus schedule

Full live coverage of The Masters tournament rounds on Paramount Plus begins on Saturday, April 12, and Sunday, April 13 (ESPN and ESPN Plus have coverage of the tournament for Thursday and Friday). However, you can access some live coverage of select featured groups on Paramount Plus throughout the week, as well as featured parts of the golf course like Amen Corner (Holes 11, 12 & 13) and holes 15 & 16.
