SiriusXM announced its broadcast plans for Masters week, April 6-14, with live coverage of all four days of Tournament play, daily Masters-focused talk programming, specials and more. Masters Radio on SiriusXM will be available to subscribers across North America in their cars (channel 92) and streaming on the SiriusXM app. The SiriusXM app will feature a special Masters page enabling listeners to easily access Tournament coverage, and special Masters Week programming.

"The Masters is always one of the most anticipated weeks on the sports calendar, and our team at SiriusXM prides themselves on bringing our listeners across the country closer to everything happening that week at Augusta National," said SiriusXM President and Chief Content Officer Scott Greenstein. "We'll cover the action on the course from the first tee shot on Thursday through the presentation of the Green Jacket on Sunday, and bring you news from Augusta National throughout the week, interviews with competitors and much more."

SiriusXM's live Tournament broadcast will air each day from Thursday, April 11, through Sunday, April 14, starting at 2pm ET and running through the completion of play. Additionally, each day before the broadcast begins at 2pm, SiriusXM will provide live look-in coverage of featured groups during its programming in the morning and early afternoon so listeners can follow the play of groups playing earlier in the day.

Mike Tirico returns as SiriusXM's lead play-by-play voice for all four Tournament rounds. He will be joined on the broadcast all four days by Steve Melnyk, who competed in five Masters Tournaments and will be SiriusXM's main analyst. In 1971 Melnyk was the low amateur at the Masters and the following year competed to a tie for 12th place at Augusta National after winning that year's Par 3 Contest.

On the course, SiriusXM's commentators will be John Maginnes, who will be calling the action on the second hole and at "Amen Corner" (11th, 12th and 13th), Brian Katrek, on the 5th, 15th and 16th holes, Maureen Madill on the 8th and 17th and Johnson Wagner on the 4th, 13th and 14th.
