How To Watch The Masters 2021 Online In The U.S.

Dustin Johnson

Like the entire PGA Tour, 2021 Masters tournament will be streamable on ESPN+. There is no longer a free trial with ESPN+, but a $6 monthly subscription gives you unlimited access to live sports and tournament coverage plus tons of sports documentaries, news, and commentaries. You can save 15% on a $60 annual subscription, but if you only want to watch the Masters, cancel after the winner walks away with the jacket. You can cancel an ESPN+ subscription at any time. If sports draw most of your attention but you want additional streamed content, you can subscribe to ESPN+, Hulu, and Disney+ all for $14 a month.

Hulu + Live TV is another choice for streaming the 2021 Masters as well as the rest of the PGA Tour. You get a one-week free trial with a Hulu + Live TV subscription, but if you don’t cancel before the trial period ends the monthly $65 charge kicks in.

To watch the 2021 Masters Tournament on the cheap, you can also signup for a FuboTV streaming bundle  and cancel before the 7-day free trial ends. FuboTV bundles start at $65 a month for a package of more than 100 channels including sports channels worldwide. If you do decide to stick around after the free trial — or you forget to cancel early — you can quit easily. FuboTV doesn’t have contracts so you can go month by month.

Another option is to subscribe to Paramount+ streaming plan (formerly CBS All Access). Paramount + costs $6 per month and also offers a free 7-day trial when you sign up. You can save 15% with a CBS All Access annual plan. Like ESPN+ and FuboTV, you can cancel at any time.

Johnson won’t be the only player gunning for this year’s Master’s jacket. Other top pros on the hunt this year include Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth and Jon Rahm.

Matt Damon continues his ‘Odyssey’ to bring clean water to people who need it
See Matt Damon become a rapper to make sure everyone knows they can help a family in need
Adult, Male, Man

Matt Damon is a busy man. He has always had a lot going on and is one of the true movie stars remaining in the world today. But, while he is winding down the build-up for one of the biggest projects of his career, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, he is not distracted from his lifelong project to bring clean water to millions around the world. Get Blue is a new initiative launched to further that mission. It is partnering with a ton of your favorite brands so you can easily get on board and bring this goal closer to shore. One of the ways he is doing this is by bringing attention to the cause by stepping into a new role of The Nomad, a rapper spittin' rhymes about water.

Music moves people in ways that few things can. It connects us, crosses borders, and makes us feel part of something bigger than ourselves. That’s what Get Blue is built on. I won’t stop looking for creative ways to draw attention, encourage participation and drive donations to help solve the global water crisis. - Matt Damon

What was once old is new again: Bang & Olufsen Beosystem 3000c Dune Grey Edition reunites generations
A new limited edition turntable combining physical and streaming makes music as generational as family
Electronics, Cd Player, Hot Tub

I hail from the generation of the curated playlist. While most of the artists I grew up listening to had phenomenal albums (can we get a standing ovation for Michael Jackson's Thriller or Dr. Dre's The Chronic?), my dad was of the mind that singles were only as good for a couple of stand-alone minutes and worked better in the context of an entire album. He could sit and listen to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon or The Beatles' Abbey Road with no breaks. I think the only album we could both do that with was Nirvana's Nevermind. In any case, by the time I was able to decide on the music in my own car, my generation was ripping music and making playlists on CDs. Even the greatest hits collections still had only one artist at a time. We wanted a collection of artists giving us the same feeling for 90 minutes without changing a CD. However, there is something to be said about my dad's way. A good album is a good album. And listening to them unbroken is a lost joy we're discovering again as a society. That is why Bang & Olufsen's new Beosystem drop is making a splash. The Beosystem 3000c Dune Grey Edition brings the two generations together, making music the connection we've always needed it to be.

Six subscription services you can buy dad today and gift tomorrow
For the ultra procrastinator, here are gifts you can get today that you don't have to wait for delivery.
Adult, Male, Man

We all love Dad. But that doesn't mean we are not guilty of waiting until the last possible moment to buy him a gift. If you are like me, then you have definitely had those moments where you completely forgot what day it was. If you got a call from mom today and reminded you to call your dad tomorrow for Father's Day, then panicked because you forgot to get him something, you're not alone. The biggest issue with procrastinating on a gift is that you have to wait for delivery for most things. Getting a gift you can get your hands on right now is a lot harder to do. That is, unless you buy a subscription service. That's right, get him something that feels tailor-made for him without it needing to be done three months ago. Here are six subscription services for any kind of man in your life.
