Masters 2026: Jack Nicklaus to join Amazon's inaugural Masters coverage

Jack Nicklaus will be among a lineup of rotating guests for Amazon’s Masters coverage debut next week.

Prime Video's Masters window runs Thursday and Friday from Butler Cabin, with NBC/Golf Channel's Terry Gannon anchoring the 1:00-3:00 p.m. block. The coverage spans both morning and afternoon wave competitors, supplemented by CBS Sports' on-course team. There will not be an analyst next to Gannon, with Prime Video choosing several voices to stop by instead.

Nicklaus is expected to be the headliner. The Golden Bear is a six-time winner of the green jacket. This year marks the 40th anniversary of this 1986 victory, a win that remains the sport's most mythologized back-nine Sunday. The 86-year-old is also slated to participate in Thursday morning's Honorary Starters ceremony.

As of release, Amazon has not yet named others expected to join the booth.

Beyond main coverage, Amazon will deploy a dedicated Amen Corner feed featuring former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy alongside Smylie Kaufman and John Wood of NBC Sports, host Justin Kutcher, and instructor Michael Breed. The streamer will also carry featured group coverage and dedicated feeds for the 15th and 16th holes.

Separately, Prime Video released a documentary Monday on Rory McIlroy's 2025 Masters victory. The show is produced by McIlroy's own production company.
