Sky Sports has signed a new deal for continued coverage of the PGA Championship and Senior PGA Championship in the UK and Ireland.

The news means that the two tournaments will remain with the broadcaster on the Sky Sports Golf channel until at least 2026.

"We're really pleased to be able to confirm this extension with the PGA, and continue the brilliant relationship that has enabled us to deliver the best possible coverage to golf fans across the years," said Sky Sports MD Jonathan Licht.

"It's been great to see our viewing figures and golf audience continue to grow, and we know we have an amazing opportunity over the next 3 years to continue to grow the sport, alongside our great partners at the PGA."

Jeff Price, chief commercial officer at the PGA, added: "We are ecstatic to continue our partnership with Sky Sports.

"This extension ensures that golf spectators across the UK and Ireland can witness all of the thrilling action at the PGA Championship and KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship each May.

"We take great pride in our close collaboration to bring the excitement of Major Championship golf to Sky's dedicated audience."

Sky boasts an impressive array of golfing rights, with coverage of all four men's Majors, all five women's Majors and both men's and women's tours.
