Masters TV coverage a mixed bag of streaming frustration

Welcome to Friday at The Masters. Tune into the Masters app, Masters.com, Prime TV, Paramount+ and ESPN for your wall-to-wall coverage!

Yes, it seems like a heavy lift. In some ways, it has been for golf fans. Gone are the days of CBS firing up the cameras at 3 p.m., and showing us four straight hours of golf. 

But that's not necessarily a bad thing. Predictably, Augusta National has had to evolve, along with its partners, to this new age of streaming. It's tricky, because Augusta is famous for shaping the coverage of this event. Sometimes, you wonder if they want you to see it at all. I get it.

I will say, though, that the introduction of Prime to this year's tournament has been more of a success than I would've thought. 

But first, a quick rundown of how to watch golf today, tomorrow, and, most importantly, Sunday:

So, that's basically it in a nutshell. Sure, that nutshell may be huge, but it's still a nutshell. Or something like that. 

To watch The Masters all day — from sun-up to sundown — you need a combination of Paramount+, Amazon Prime, and ESPN. That's for today. To watch over the weekend, you can go ahead and drop the Amazon subscription if you so choose, but pick up CBS. 

Again, it sounds daunting. "All you need is a laptop, a TV and a few subscriptions." OK. Sounds great! Thanks, Augusta, for letting us in!

Some folks, understandably so, are annoyed:

I get it. Too many cooks in the kitchen. That certainly applies here. But, that's the age we live in. The streaming era is ruthless. It all seemed great on paper years ago, but now it's just become exhausting. 

It's not all bad. For starters, the simplest answer to all of this is "Just use The Masters app." Yes, it's a great app. It has everything. You can watch it all, in one spot. Same with Masters.com. 

You can go there right now and watch the featured groups, Amen corner, and holes 4, 5 and 6. 

Obviously, that's not going to be for everyone, though. It can also be clunky, as most streaming apps are. That's just the nature of the business.

A lot of folks also don't realize you can put the Masters app on your smart TVs, so they end up holding a phone or watching their laptops all day. Not great. And yes, I'm talking about the older folks. I don't think that's any big secret. 

I'll will, however, give Prime credit. Again, usually when a new streaming service gets involved in a sport, it can be dicey. Netflix was crucified for a pretty subpar MLB debut a few weeks ago. 

By all accounts, Prime has been solid so far this week:

Again, not bad. I've seen these things spiral pretty quickly. Prime seemed ready to roll, which makes sense given they've had the Thursday Night Football package for years now. 

Anyway, like anything in 2026, Masters coverage has been met with mixed reviews all week. Does it feel like we're getting yanked around? Sure. Has Prime been a nice addition to fill the gap between the morning and the main broadcast? Absolutely. 

Some folks will tell you to quit complaining, because there was a time, not too long ago, where you didn't get any Masters TV coverage until 3 p.m. 

Obviously, that's no longer the case. You can watch golf all day long now. 

You just have to work to find it.

McDonald's CEO dragged again after another awkward food video: 'Nugget bite was worse'

McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski is back in the spotlight after his awkward burger review was seen by millions — and his latest attempt to address it sparked fresh backlash.

The business executive went viral in February after posting his video review of the Big Arch, a hefty burger packed with two quarter-pound patties, three slices of cheese and crispy onions — along with the usual pickles, slivered onions and lettuce.

Kempczinski called the burger a "delicious product," all while wearing a sweater vest and sitting in a corporate setting.

"Holy cow! God, that is a big burger," Kempczinski said in the video, which was seen by millions of Instagram users.

Despite his excitement, Kempczinski only took a very small bite of the burger and declared, "That is so good."

Though he seemed uncomfortable eating it, the executive described the offering as "distinctively McDonald's."

"Only McDonald's could do this type of burger, but it also is unlike anything else on our menu. It's a delicious product," Kempczinski said.

The fast-food chief endured thousands of comments scrutinizing him over the video and later addressed the reaction in an interview published by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) on April 6.

Kempczinski told the outlet that he learned the video had gone viral when one of his children told him about it.

"I got a call from one of my kids, and they said, 'Dad, you've gone viral and not in a good way,'" the CEO said.

When WSJ business columnist Tim Higgins asked him about eating on camera, Kempczinski laughed and said it's best to "just dive right in."

He added, "I'm looking forward to taking a nice bite out of this chicken nugget," before eating the company's signature McNugget.

"It's a little weird to watch each other eat," Higgins responded.

"Imagine how I felt," Kempczinski joked.

In the comments section of the WSJ Instagram post, users didn't hold back.

"The nugget bite was worse than the burger one," one person said.

"Even the nugget bite was ragebait," a second user observed.

Another person joked, "Can we never see him again pls?"

Many other users questioned why he was being interviewed again.

"He still looks like he does not want to eat his own 'products,'" an unimpressed user wrote.

"Why do they continue to put him on [the] air," another said.

Prince Harry sued by charity he founded in honor of Princess Diana

The charity Prince Harry co-founded to honor his late mother Princess Diana has sued the former working royal for libel.

Sentebale filed a complaint against Prince Harry last month with the High Court of London. The complaint also named Mark Dyer, who was ​a trustee of the charity.

Prince Harry left Sentebale on March 25, 2025, following a dispute between the charity's board of trustees and its chairwoman, Dr. Sophie Chandauka.

PRINCE HARRY 'IN SHOCK' AS HE QUITS AFRICAN CHARITY AMID FOUNDATION'S MOUNTING LEGAL ISSUES

Disagreements at the charity first surfaced in 2023 over a new fundraising strategy. The Duke of Sussex, along with his co-founder, Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, stepped down in solidarity with fellow trustees roughly two years later.

At the time, they said the relationship between the board and Chandauka was beyond repair.

"Nearly 20 years ago, we founded Sentebale in honour of our mothers. Sentebale means ‘forget-me-not’ in Sesotho, the local language of Lesotho, and it’s what we’ve always promised for the young people we’ve served through this charity," Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso, who co-founded the charity in April 2006, said in a joint statement obtained by Fox News Digital.

"Today is no different. With heavy hearts, we have resigned from our roles as patrons of the organization until further notice, in support of and solidarity with the board of trustees who have had to do the same," the statement added. "It is devastating that the relationship between the charity’s trustees and the chair of the board broke down beyond repair, creating an untenable situation."

The Duke of Sussex co-founded the charity with Seeiso, whose mother died in 2003, after visiting Lesotho during his gap year in 2004. Sentebale was created to help people in Lesotho and Botswana living in poverty and those suffering from HIV and AIDS.

According to The Times, the charity had carried out a "restructuring" of its board as "confirmation of its strategy to redeploy senior roles to be proximate to most of the team and programs in Southern Africa."

Chandauka later accused Harry of orchestrating a campaign of bullying and harassment to try to force her out.

The bullying and harassment claims were investigated by the Charity Commission for England and Wales, who found no evidence of widespread bullying at the charity. 

The commission criticized both the board of trustees and the chairwoman for allowing the ordeal to play out publicly, damaging the charity's reputation.

"Sentebale’s problems played out in the public eye, enabling a damaging dispute to harm the charity’s reputation, risk overshadowing its many achievements, and jeopardizing the charity’s ability to deliver for the very beneficiaries it was created to serve," commission CEO David Holdsworth said in a statement in August 2025.

Chicago dad bludgeoned to death outside bar as police hunt for four persons of interest

A Chicago dad who was expecting his second child was bludgeoned to death outside a bar in an early morning attack as police seek four persons of interest.

Alexander "Xander" Kazanowski, 25, was found unresponsive on the ground with injuries to his head near a bar in the Avondale neighborhood of Chicago around 3:20 a.m. March 24, according to the Cook County Crime Stoppers.

According to the Chicago Police Department, he was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in critical condition and later died.

Kazanowski, an Illinois-based model, had allegedly been asked to leave a bar because of several comments he had made, according to WGN-TV.

The Chicago Police Department opened a homicide investigation, sharing video of the four persons of interest they would like to question.

The individuals were described as three African American men, and one Asian woman.

One wore a black jacket, a black baseball hat, and blue jeans. The second man wore a black jacket, a white hooded sweatshirt, and black pants. The third man wore a blue jacket, blue jeans and a brown winter hat.

The security cameras captured the four individuals entering the bar, Tune-Up, the night of the alleged attack, according to video released by the Chicago Police Department. It was not clear if the video was from before or after the alleged assault.

The Cook County Crime Stoppers is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the individuals responsible.

Kazanowski was the father of one daughter, Thea, and a soon-to-be-born son, John, according to his obituary.

He grew up in South Barrington, Illinois, and was a wrestler in middle and high school. At 19, he founded his first company, Wurk Services, and he was also an actor and model, his obituary said.

"Xander’s story is not defined by the years he was given, but by the vigor with which he filled them," his obituary said. "True to his character, his final act was a perfect expression of his generous heart. As an organ donor, he saved multiple lives and helped countless others move closer to the miracle of a second chance."

Olympic gold winner dismisses athletes' negative comments on representing US: 'I think we're the best country'

Not everybody representing the red, white and blue sounded necessarily ecstatic about doing so in the Olympics.

Freeskier Hunter Hess said he had "mixed emotions" representing the U.S. in Milan, while skier Mikaela Shiffrin said she wanted to represent her own "values" in Milan, and it was "tough to reconcile" violence in America while "competing for medals at an Olympic event."

But for two-time gold medalist Jordan Stolz, there were no problems.

In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, the speedskater who won gold twice in Italy, Stolz said he paid no mind to any other athletes' comments.

"I didn't really pay attention to it, but I'm always happy to represent the USA," Stolz said.

"I think we're the best country."

It was not just winter Olympians who shared unease about representing the United States on the grandest stage. In an interview with Fox News Digital months before the 2024 Summer Olympics, Noah Lyles said representing the U.S. was "bittersweet" and came with a "heavy heart," saying Black people in America have "a lot to deal with."

OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST DISCUSSES BALANCE BETWEEN CELEBRATING ONE VICTORY WHILE VYING FOR OTHERS

Hess said it was "a little hard" to represent the United States, because "there’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren’t." Those comments prompted President Donald Trump to call him a "real loser."

"Just because I’m wearing the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that’s going on in the U.S. I just kind of want to do it for my friends and my family and the people that support me getting here," Hess said in February.

Shriffin said, "I think there's a lot of hardship in the world globally, and there's a lot of heartbreak. There's a lot of violence. It can be tough to reconcile that when you're also competing for medals at an Olympic event."

Ahead of the World Baseball Classic, Bryce Harper, who played for Team USA, said it was "crazy" to not fully embrace wearing the Stars and Stripes.

The Philadelphia Phillies first baseman said no matter where one may stand politically, it is always the greatest honor to represent the United States.

"Obviously, there's things that are going on in the country that, you know, aren't good or people don't believe in or whatever, right? Politics aside, for me, when you're going and representing your country, you're representing your country, man. Like, block all that out. It's sports.

"We want to put something on the TV that is happy and good and just great for everybody to watch, right? So, representing your country, there's nothing greater than representing your country. There's really nothing at all.
