Masters live stream: how to watch 2019’s final holes and from anywhere right now

Can you remember a Masters Tournament as exciting as this in recent memory? Any one of a number of golfers can still win the Green Jacket in 2019 - and they include legend Tiger Woods. Prepare for fireworks (and possibly lightning) as you can get a Masters live stream for FREE from absolutely anywhere you are in the world with this guide.

All the US Masters talk is about Tiger of course. Rolling back the years and looking like a genuine threat to grab his 15th major - his first for over 10 years. It's 22 years since his first win at Augusta National and the raucous crowd will be urging every single shot to "get in the hole" today.

But don't forget that he wasn't leading the 83rd Masters Tournament going into the final round. That honour went to 2018 Open winner Francesco Molinari, who held a two shot advantage. And what of Tony Finau and Webb Simpson. Both Americans shot 64s yesterday and will be looking to make a push for the title today. And last year's stand-out player Brooks Koepka is in the mix, too. Anyone could win the coveted Green Jacket today!

Our quick and easy guide will tell you how to watch the fourth and final round - a 2019 Masters live stream online from anywhere in the world. It's extremely easy to do, even if you are away from your home country when it's on and want to tune in to your preferred coverage. It's even FREE in some countries and available to watch without commercials.

F1 live stream: how to watch the 2019 Chinese Grand Prix online from anywhere

So Mercedes is looking like the team to beat at the Chinese Grand Prix, with Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton on the front row of the grid at the Shanghai International Circuit. You can watch the crazy cornering, exciting straights and nail-biting near misses from anywhere in the world, using this guide to getting an F1 live stream.

The Shanghai Formula 1 track is relatively youthful with a 2003 birth following a whooping $450 million investment and 18 months of building. The track itself is designed to look like the Chinese symbol "shang" meaning "upwards". The result is some super fast straights and very high g-force corners. So who can we expect to master this track?

So far we've only had a glimpse at what the season may hold with a Bottas, Hamilton, Verstappen finish at the Australian race and a Bahrain podium of Hamilton, Bottas and Leclerc.

So who will take the points this time with Mercedes and Ferrari going head-to-head? The conditions in Shanghai are cool and the roughness of the asphalt is quite low. This is better for cars that focus on the front tyres working best. Evidence suggests Mercedes are looking after their rears, which creates an understeer balance meaning the advantage could sit with Ferrari in Shanghai. 

You can catch all the racing action live from anywhere you happen to be using this guide. Read on to find out how to live stream F1 action.

How to watch 2019 Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race live coverage: stream online from anywhere

The Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race may be a quintessentially British sporting event, but it brings worldwide attention to a couple of boats on the River Thames for one Sunday every year. Now it's back for another head-to-head between the two universities for 2019 and we'll make sure you're in the driving (or should that be rowing?) seat to stream Boat Race live coverage online regardless of where you are.

The waters of the river Thames in London will once again see which university team has the rowing ability to take the title of varsity Boat Race winner.

Cambridge currently leads the overall event, which started in 1829, taking 83 victories over Oxford's 80. That excludes the 1877 race that ended as a dead heat, though those cheeky Dark Blues claimed it as a victory.

While the Thames will be filled with rowing fans (as well as fans of standing-outside-pubs-on-the-river) you might want to catch it all from the comfort of home. Thankfully, that's an option.

This year the races will all take place on the same day and you'll be able to watch the Boat Race live coverage on the good old BBC. If you're not in the UK then you might not be able to access the live stream. but this guide can help thanks to a few best VPN related tips and tricks.

Are second-hand tech items covered by gadget insurance?

If you've bought any second-hand tech, like a smartphone or tablet, you may struggle to get gadget insurance cover as lots of companies don't cover anything but gadgets bought new.

But that doesn't mean you need to be put off from buying a second-hand bargain if insurance cover is a must, as there are still ways to keep you covered. With second-hand iPhones, for example, still costing hundreds of pounds, lots of sage people will want iPhone insurance.

Why insurance companies don't generally cover second-hand tech makes sense when you think about it – if the company doesn't know the history of the device it's tough to assess how long it will last. A payout might come shortly after, due to damage attained without the new owner's use, like water damage that could take effect in the longer term. But you could still get cover.

Check out our gadget insurance explainer here so you have a good knowledge of the general world of tech insurance. Then read on to find out about what you need to know when insuring second-hand tech. 

Does gadget insurance generally cover second-hand tech?

The short answer is no.

Lots of insurance companies only insure brand new devices. For big name retailers that insure like Carphone Warehouse or O2, you're limited to phones that are 30 or 28 days old respectively, but in both those cases it's for new handsets, not second-hand ones. But then retailers are a bit less flexible than specialist insurers...

Is it possible to get specific gadget insurance for second-hand items?

Now we're getting to it - some insurers do offer cover for second-hand devices up to a certain age. Some good examples are Cheaper Gadget Insurance, which insures on devices up to three years old; Endsleigh, which also operates the three year cutoff; Protect Your Bubble, which covers gadgets up to 18 months old; CUSC Phoneguard, covering up to six months old; and Insurance2Go which also has a six-month cutoff.

Expect to pay a premium for these specific policies but it may be worth it to know your gadget is covered. Also you can offset that cost against the saving you made by buying the gadget second-hand. 

 What kind of tech can be covered?

Companies that offer second-hand gadget cover specifically, like the ones mentioned above, are primarily for smartphones. You could also get cover for other gadgets that are on the go with you. So for tablets, expensive headphones, laptops and the like it could be worth looking for a policy to cover you.

One great option here is multi-gadget insurance which will allow you to cover lots of gadgets all in one policy and simple payment method. Just be sure to check with the provider about second-hand items and how that affects the premium. 

Can home insurance cover second-hand tech?

Yes, home insurance can indeed cover second-hand tech. For phones you may need to call your policy provider and make sure you're covered. There is sometimes a nominal fee to pay for this, around the £20-mark. 

But for other gadgets that you don't take out of the house, like consoles, TVs, appliances, speakers and so on, you can pop them on your house insurance as an easy way to cover them. Most home insurance will cover you up to a certain point, usually under £2,000, but you may need to specify the gadgets depending on the policy type.

2019 F1 live stream: how to watch every Grand Prix online from anywhere

The 2019 Formula One season is set to see the 1000th World Championship race, which will take place in China. But the excitement goes far beyond mere marks of measure, with another m-word set to tear up the tarmac – Mercedes.

After an exciting F1 season in 2018 where Lewis Hamilton came out on top with the World Drivers' Championship title and his team Mercedes nabbed the World Constructors' Champion title, it's going to be tough to top. Yet Hamilton has already said that's exactly what he plans to do for 2019 – and you can get an F1 live stream of every race.

So what will be standing in the way of Hamilton romping home with the 2019 F1 title? He's got plenty to go up against. Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel finished 2018 as runner-up at 88 points behind Hamilton. This season you can expect the four-time world champion to come out fighting as he is defending his reputation after Hamilton convincingly defeated him.

Vettel is also under pressure as his new teammate and rising star Charles Leclerc replaces Kimi Raikkonen (who finished third overall in 2018) at Ferrari. Raikkonen joins Alfa Romeo Racing–Ferrari for this year. And this season sees McLaren changing from Honda to Renault as engine supplier after too many reliability issues.

Ireland vs France live stream: how to watch Six Nations 2019 rugby online from anywhere

Ireland vs France is ON! The 2019 Six Nations has had a lot of highs with quite a few lows – two sides that have seen both of those extremes now go head-to-head in round 4. It's Ireland vs France and you can live stream the game from absolutely anywhere with our help.

France has had a tough run so far losing to Wales (19–24) and England (44–8) but did beat Scotland (27–10) in Paris a fortnight ago. While Ireland haven't quite had the tournament they were hoping for following the opening loss to England (32–20). They've since bounced back by beating Scotland (22–13) and Italy (26–16), but neither very convincingly.

Ireland coach Joe Schmidt has rung the changes with seven fresh faces from that victory in Rome. The French side will remain the same as the victory over Scotland in Paris.

Last year's Six Nations game between the two sides went down to the final whistle in a brilliant game that saw Ireland nab the win in Paris. Expect this year to be just as exciting and you can watch an entire Ireland vs France live stream wherever you are using this guide and, if you're travelling, a handy VPN.

How to live stream the Six Nations when you're not in your country

If you're outside your country of residence - whether that be the UK or anywhere else - and try to start streaming the rugby via your native broadcaster, you'll soon discover that you can't as it is location restricted. Fear not, the action is still within your reach. All you need to do is download and install a VPN to effectively trick your computer into thinking that it's back home. That way you can enjoy your home coverage (as long as you do so in compliance with the broadcaster's Ts&Cs) without delving into the dangers of an illegal stream.

Dmitry Bivol vs Joe Smith Jr live stream: how to watch tonight’s boxing online from anywhere

Dmitry Bivol is looking to make the fifth defence of his title as current holder of the WBA light heavyweight belt, this time it's Joe Smith Jr that's taking a shot at the champ, and it's shaping up to be a cracker. Keep reading to see how to get a Bivol vs Smith Jr live stream.

While Bivol (15–1, 11 KOs) won his last fight against Jean Pascal in a unanimous decision, Smith Jr (24–2, 20 KOs) is also coming off a win after dropping Melvin Russell in the first round with a powerful knockout.

That wasn't a one off for Smith Jr though. He also famously knocked Bernard Hopkins clear out of the ring in what ended up being the veteran and legend's last fight. This is the power Bivol faces as he tries to avoid dropping his title tonight.

The highly skilled 28-year-old champ should, technically, be able to outmanoeuvre the big slugger that is the 29-year-old Smith Jr. But it only takes one good punch so there's still everything there to be won. 

Bivol says about his challenger: "I saw his fights against Fonfara and Hopkins live and always wanted to test my skills against him. Thank you to World of Boxing, Matchroom Boxing USA and DAZN — I hope to put on a great performance for everybody!"

Talking of DAZN, that's just one of many ways that you can catch this fight, depending on where you are in the world. Read on to find out how to live stream the Dmitry Bivol vs Joe Smith Jr fight from absolutely anywhere.

But if you're abroad this weekend (or if the country where you live simply doesn't show boxing matches like this one) then you'll need another way to watch and avoid possible geo-blocking. That's where using a VPN comes in.

England vs Italy live stream: how to watch Six Nations rugby online from anywhere

England vs Italy has seen some massive scores n the past, and today could be another in the Six Nations 2019. A very strong English side will be looking to bounce back with authority after losing to Wales last week. And you can watch the entire game - no matter where you are in the world. Live stream England vs Italy with our guide.

So far Italy has had a tough time of it losing to Scotland (33–20), Wales (26–15) and Ireland (26–16). Now it has England to contend with, a team that beat Ireland (32–20), France (44–8) and will feel hurt and ready to kill after that game in Wales a fortnight ago that ended ultimately in loss (13–21).

England no longer has the Grand Slam on offer, so the pressure could be lifted allowing the side to really cut lose against Italy. This is the chance to secure a third bonus point victory with eyes still on an overall Six Nations win. The England side will again be without Maro Itoje and now Courtney Lawes whose calf is strained. Jack Nowell is also out after a shoulder injury, but that does mean a first Six Nations start for the exciting winger Joe Cokanasiga.

Italy has shown strength in this tournament, going off the field at the interval against Ireland with the higher score thanks to good work from Edoardo Padovani and Luca Morisi. They have named three uncapped players in Marco Riccioni, Marco Zanon and Gloucester scrum-half Callum Braley, who as a former England U20 captain could be a real threat.

Read on to see how to get the England vs Italy live stream from where you are. You may be surprised how easy it is to watch Six Nations rugby from pretty much any corner of the globe.

Scotland vs Wales live stream: how to watch Six Nations rugby online from anywhere

Update: You missed it! The Doddy Weir Cup has been retained by Wales after beating Scotland in their own back yard 18-11. But there's more rugby union to be enjoyed today, with the Six Nations continuing at Twickenham. Use our guide to watch an England vs Italy live stream now.

The Six Nations 2019 has provided some great games so far, one of the highlights being when Wales beat England two weekends ago and thus retained its unbeaten status. The Grand Slam is well and truly on...although Scotland will have something to say about that. We're here to get you prepared for a Scotland vs Wales live stream, regardless of where in the world you are.

And it won't all be plain sailing for the Welsh. It doesn't take much to remember  them losing to Scotland at Murrayfield in 2017 Wales. And soundly, with a convincing 29–13 win for the Scots.

So far Scotland have beaten Italy (33–20) but then suffered defeats to Ireland (13–22) and France (27–10). By comparison, Wales have won all their 2019 Six Nations games, beating France (24–19), Italy (26–15) and then England (21–13).

But Scotland have got a stronger side than previously in the tournament, with key players returning from injury - including star stand-off Finn Russell and forwards Hamish Watson, WP Nel, Sam Skinner and Grant Stewart, as well as centre Stafford McDowall. Scotland is looking very strong indeed. Wales have kept its starting line-up largely the same with just one change announced as Adam Beard comes on at lock to replace the injured Cory Hill.

The game itself is free to air in the UK, so you can watch a Scotland vs Wales live stream for free. For all your other viewing options - ideal if you're outside the UK - keep on reading. Now you can watch every Six Nations game from wherever you are.

Save a packet on watching Formula 1 (and all Sky Sports) with Now TV’s new offer

This Formula 1 season, all the rubber burning action is going to be available in the UK via Sky Sports and subscription-busting Now TV - only the British Grand Prix will be available on Channel 4.

Giving you a moment to get over the bad news, now for some good. Now TV has just released a special F1 Season Ticket that gives you access to all nine months of the F1 season for a reduced overall price. A one-off payment buys you all the action up front so you can easily access every race via an internet connected Now TV setup.

The F1 Season Ticket for NOW TV will cost you a single £195 payment for the entire season. That may sound steep but in reality that's a meagre £5 per week. And it's worth noting that despite the name, the season ticket opens up the entire catalogue of Sky Sport channels. So you'll get the rest of the Premier League football season, golf majors, Ashes cricket and all the rest it has to offer for the next nine months - not bad at all for a fiver a week.

Now TV's F1 Season Ticket + Sky Sports

And since Now TV is available on smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, set-top boxes, laptops and more, there'll be no excuse to miss a single F1 race no matter where you are in the world. Well, you might need a VPN of course but that's easily fixed by grabbing one of the best VPN services around.

The only thing to be wary of is that after the nine month period ends you'll be automatically renewed at £33.99 per month. So be sure to cancel this if you don't want to carry on.

What does iPhone insurance cover?

You don't need is to tell you that Apple products tend to be pricey and its iPhones are getting more and more expensive with every generation. Since nobody has yet mastered unbreakable phones - or even uncrackable screens - all that money could go to waste if you don't have insurance. That's why it's good to get covered, but it's also important to know what you're paying for.

There are lots of different types of iPhone insurance, including Apple's own AppleCare+, but while one policy may cover you for water damage another could leave you high and not so dry. Read on to find out what you need to do to make sure your iPhone is covered.

Why do I need iPhone cover?

If you've just spent a lot of money on the latest and best iPhone, the last thing you want is a cracked screen that ruins all those fancy pixels. Also, as a new iPhone it's more likely to get stolen. Sure, it's probably too big to lose, but you never know. Insurance is the best way to cover all those awful possibilities and leave you with the peace of mind that the best mobile phone insurance policies offer. 

What does insurance for iPhones cover?

Many standard phone insurance policies will immediately cover you for the basics like loss, theft and breakage. But it's when you get into the finer details that you need to look a little more closely. 

Some policies may not cover water damage and others may charge a large excess to get a new device. This can be especially annoying if you've just cracked your screen and only need that part repaired, but then have to claim on a policy that will then mean increased premiums in the future. 

So be sure your policy covers theft, loss (which may not include when you've left the phone unattended in public), damage to the screen and water damage plus unauthorised calls or app purchases made when the phone is not with you. Also make sure the excess isn't too high – some policies offer a separate lower excess just for the screen without having to make a full claim. Apple itself actually covers this quite nicely...

What does AppleCare+ cover?

Apple's very own cover plan - named AppleCare+ - is a policy that is quite specifically aimed at damage. So this won't cover loss or theft but it can help out if you've got a cracked screen.

This offers a £25 excess to get your screen fixed and you can do that twice in a year. Or, for any other damage, there's a one off £79 excess to get that fixed too. That latter policy even means you can get a new battery if yours drops to below 80% of the original capacity.

How much does insurance cover for iPhones cost?

Aside from the above charges, there are lots of options for insurance and they all vary depending on the model of iPhone you're insuring. The larger the capacity also affects price as the handset will be worth more.

Policies vary between £70 per year right up to £180 per year. At the time of writing, for example, to cover an iPhone XS you're looking at around £100 to cover you for the year, or £10 per month if you want to spread the cost.

Some good insurer options include Protect Your Bubble, Insure2go and Gadget Cover. But you could also use your home insurance (although that won't cover you once you go out the front door), or look at a policy from your bank or even supermarket. 

Find out everything you need to know about cover and prices at our iPhone insurance guide here.

Want to combine insuring your iPhone together with other gadgets? It could save you money in the long run. If that sounds tempting, then head over to our guide on getting the best gadget insurance cover for mobiles, laptops, tablets and more.
