Why can't I watch all of the Masters live?
Tournament officials at the Augusta National Golf Club limit TV coverage over fears that too much live broadcasting would cut attendance figures at the course.
Over the years, more of the tournament has become available for fans at home, with mainly the opening days affected by the TV blackout as opposed to the weekend drama.
The official Masters website also exclusively airs coverage from several parts of the course including Hole 16 and Amen Corner.
