CBS is a long-term partner of the golf tournament in Augusta, Georgia.
The company broadcasts Saturday and Sunday action in the third and fourth round respectively.
ESPN currently holds the rights to Thursday and Friday for rounds one and two of the Masters.
In 2024, CBS broadcast from 3pm to 7pm ET Saturday and 2pm to 7pm ET Sunday.
But both days in 2025 will be from 2pm ET to 7pm ET after the extra hour of television coverage was added Saturday.
And Paramount Plus will also now show two hours of live coverage from 12pm to 2pm ET on both days.
That totals five hours of additional golf for the weekend’s action in the first major of the year.
“The Masters Tournament has had the great fortune of enjoying an extraordinary relationship with CBS Sports for nearly 70 years,” Augusta National chairman Fred Ridley said.
“Alongside our friends at the network, we are pleased to extend the Tournament’s weekend coverage and ultimately deliver more live golf for Masters fans.”
The 2025 Masters will take place from Thursday 10 April to Sunday 13 April.
Unlike other golf majors, live TV coverage from the Masters has remained a little more exclusive.
Scottie Scheffler is the defending champion having beaten Ludvig Aberg by four shots in April.
The 28-year-old won his second Green Jacket in three years this year.
