The Open FAQ
- Where can I stream the early rounds of the The Open?
- The Thursday and Friday rounds stream on USA Net and Peacock. ESPN+ is the cheapest standalone way in if you mainly want the early-round and featured-group coverage.
- What channel is the The Open on over the weekend?
- The Saturday and Sunday rounds air on NBC, USA Net, and Peacock. Those are broadcast networks, so an antenna pulls them in free, or any live-TV streamer that carries them works.
- Can I watch the The Open for free?
- Partly. The weekend network rounds are free over the air with an antenna, and the live-TV services that carry the early rounds run free trials you can use for the tournament before cancelling.
- Do I need ESPN+ and a cable login to watch the whole tournament?
- To follow every round you generally want ESPN+ for Thursday and Friday plus a way to watch NBC, USA Net, and Peacock on the weekend. A single live-TV streamer that bundles ESPN+ and those networks can cover both in one subscription.
- Can I watch the The Open on my phone?
- Yes. ESPN+, the Golf Channel app and the live-TV services below all stream on phones, tablets and smart TVs, so you can follow the tournament anywhere.
