Amazon Reveals Talent Lineup for Its Masters Debut

Play-by-play announcer Terry Gannon will be joined by a rotation of special guests, including Jack Nicklaus.

Amazon Prime Video’s debut coverage as a Masters broadcaster will be anchored by longtime NBC Sports and Golf Channel play-by-play announcer Terry Gannon.

Prime Video will stream first and second-round coverage from 1-3 p.m. ET on Thursday and Friday of The Masters, before ESPN comes on the air at its traditional 3 p.m. ET timeslot for the remainder of those rounds. CBS will broadcast the tournament’s final two rounds on Saturday and Sunday.

Gannon will call the action from Butler Cabin and will not be accompanied by a traditional booth analyst. Instead, he will be joined by special guests, including Jack Nicklaus, as well as other current and former stars that will be announced at a later date.

CBS’s on-course reporters will also contribute to Amazon’s coverage, similar to how they do for ESPN’s coverage each year. CBS produces all Masters coverage, including Amazon’s and ESPN’s.

Beyond Amazon’s main coverage window during the first and second rounds, Prime Video is also debuting a special alternate feed of holes Nos. 11-13 during all four rounds called Inside Amen Corner. Using stats and data in a similar fashion to the Prime Vision feed that has become popular on Amazon’s Thursday Night Football, Inside Amen Corner will be anchored by golf and multi-sport play-by-play announcer Justin Kutcher. Analysts will include 2006 U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy, Golf Channel on-course reporter Smylie Kaufman, and former PGA Tour caddie John Wood. Professional golf instructor Michael Breed will contribute some broadcast vignettes throughout the coverage.

Inside Amen Corner will stream from approximately 10:45 a.m.–6 p.m. ET during the first two rounds, and 11:45 a.m.–6 p.m. ET during the third and final rounds. Prime Video is also streaming standard featured groups and featured holes Nos. 15 and 16 throughout the Masters; those feeds are also available on Masters.com, the app, Paramount+, and ESPN+.

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
