By | April 8, 2021

Tiger Woods will not participate in the 2021 Masters Tournament as he continues to recover from injuries he sustained in a February car crash, but this year’s event should still provide plenty of excitement.

Dustin Johnson will be looking to add another green jacket to his closet after winning the 2020 Masters just a few months ago. He will be facing some stiff competition, though, with top golfers such as Bryson DeChambeau, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas hoping to enjoy a long weekend at Augusta National.

Here is a complete guide to watching the 2021 Masters, including the start time and TV channels for each round.
