Masters live stream 2018: How to watch Friday’s round online

Here’s how to follow along throughout the day.

The second round of play of The Masters at Augusta National Golf Club, the prestigious ground on the Georgia-South Carolina border, will begin on Friday morning. Upon one of the mosr anticipated tournaments in years, the second day of action won’t be lacking any excitement.

Every year, this tournament is a huge deal. Some think it’s the major on the golf calendar, but even if you’re not one of those people, it’s a massive event. Along with the end of March Madness and baseball’s Opening Day, it helps officially ring in springtime in the sports world. It’s extra big this year, because Tiger Woods is playing for the first time since 2015.

Woods didn’t exactly have the best round he could have on Thursday, finishing at 1-over. The leader after the first round was Jordan Spieth, who birdied five holes in a row on the back nine to finish at 6-under. Behind Spieth at 4-under is Tony Finau, who’s participating in his first-ever Masters. What’s even more impressive is that he did this after suffering a high ankle sprain on Wednesday while he was celebrating a hole-in-one.

The Masters remains golf’s hardest major to watch on TV. AGNC has strict limits on how much of the tournament its broadcast partners can carry, which means most of Friday’s rounds will only be available via live streams of particular groups and spots on the course. Here’s full information on how to watch Friday’s round:
