Streaming the US Open 2026
Peacock is your best option if you have cut the cord, simulcasting every NBC and NBCSN window plus exclusive blocks throughout the week.
Featured group coverage is available daily on USOpen.com, the USGA App, Peacock, YouTube TV, DirecTV, and Xfinity, with three morning and three afternoon groups each day. This is the easiest way to follow a specific player without waiting for the main broadcast to cut to their group.
New this year, NBC will use predictive trace technology and wind predictor data alongside its Emmy-winning drone tracing system, giving viewers more insight into how Shinnecock’s notorious wind affects every shot.
International Broadcasts
Coverage varies by region, so it is worth checking local listings closer to the event. Sky Sports Golf carries exclusive rights in the UK and Ireland through at least 2030.
TSN and RDS are the likely Canadian broadcasters, while Fox Sports and Kayo Sports typically hold rights in Australia. SuperSport covers Southern Africa.
This year marks the sixth time Shinnecock Hills has hosted the US Open, following previous editions in 1896, 1986, 1995, 2004, and 2018. With firm fairways, thick rough, and unpredictable winds, it remains one of the toughest tests in major championship golf.
