2010 Masters Friday TV Schedule: CBS Sports and ESPN Airing Times

1 of 6

As the Masters teed off early Thursday morning, more and more people have turned their heads towards Augusta, Georgia, and the site of the 2010 Masters Tournament.

Tiger Woods has made his return, as he finished the day at four under par, tied for seventh overall. He has a great reaction from the fans (which was surprising to most), and he played a great first day of golf.

While Tiger made his appearance, Fred Couples showed no soft feelings for Tiger, or the rest of the field, as he sits at the top of the leaderboard at six under par, just ahead of players like Phil Mickelson and Tom Watson.

All of this happened in the first day of the Masters, but did you catch any of it?

Do fans know when the tournament is televised?

Well, if you don't, that's what this is for.

In this slideshow, I will present to you all the times of televised periods in the next three days of the tournament.

Additionally, I'll add the times of some other things to watch.

If you want to watch your favorite golfer on TV through Sunday (at least hopefully he will make it that far), here are the times of CBS Sports and ESPN's coverage of the Masters

Both stations will be giving hard, inside coverage of the 2010 Masters.

Enjoy!

History of CBS and ESPN Covering the Masters Tournament

Before we get down and dirty with specifics, how about a brief history lesson on the Masters being televised.

Since 1956, CBS has televised every Masters in the U.S., from the days when only six cameras were used to show the last four holes to today, where we see every little budge and walk to the next hole.

Coverage of the first eight holes did not occur until 1993 because of resistance from the tournament organizers. By 2006, however, over 50 cameras were used.

USA Network jumped in with first and second round coverage in 1982, which was also produced by the CBS Sports team.

However, in 2008, ESPN took the reigns and replaced the USA Network. They now cover the weekday coverage on Thursday and Friday.

Also, something else interesting to note, the Masters will be broadcast in 3D in 2010 (yes, this year).
