No Golf or Masters UHD?!?

[JBarz]

How do I watch The Masters in UHD? Skysports Golf is in HD upscaled to 4k - the quality is nowhere near good enough / ultra HD.

If there is no way to do it, that is shocking! Sky have an F1 UHD channel which is currently showing 'GTWC Endurance race' - nobody will be watching this in comparison to The Masters! Sky can change the F1 channel to the Darts, so surely this can be done for one weekend for the Golf whilst the F1 isn't on for 2 weeks! 

Skysports main event UHD is showing Liverpool vs Fulham, which I understand as football usually takes priority (albeit a mid-table clash!)...

Sky UHD customers have to pay extra for the quality -   Find it ridiculous that you can't watch The Masters in true UHD. Please correct me if I'm wrong and there is a button or way to access it.

I'm on sky q, when I go to Sky Sports Q, it comes up with option to press "select for uhd"

Figured it out, if anyone needs it. 

Have to restart your box then click onto SkySports Golf, then click enter when it flashes up asking if you want it in UHD. 

Still think they should just replace F1 with Golf UHD for 1 weekend!

Thanks - I had to restart my box for it to come up. Might be because I was already on the channel before it started

And perhaps note that any distributor around the globe is limited by the feed which the course itself provides, which sometimes isn't actually 4K capture to begin with.

I am pleased to see (or should that be hear) that the Masters coverage has 5.1 sound 🙂

Although I have to admit, other tournaments may have had it but I have not noticed due to not watching that much Golf this year
