The 126th U.S. Open Championship runs Thursday June 18 through Sunday June 21, 2026 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. NBC has the US TV rights — coverage is split across NBC (broadcast), USA Network (cable), and Peacock (streaming). Here's the round-by-round breakdown plus the cheapest way to watch every shot.
The 2026 US Open airs on NBC (broadcast, free OTA) for weekend final-round coverage, USA Network (cable) for weekday and early-weekend coverage, and Peacock Premium ($7.99/mo) streams everything live including Peacock-exclusive Featured Groups + Featured Holes.
Cheapest path: Peacock Premium for one month — $7.99 total. Cancel after Sunday. Catches every shot of every round live.
All times Eastern. Tee times vary by leader board but live coverage windows are confirmed by NBC Sports. Saturday and Sunday have NBC broadcast windows when the cameras leave USA Network for over-the-air coverage.
Founded: 1891 · One of the five founding clubs of the USGA
Designer: William Flynn (1931 routing) on the original Willie Davis (1891) site · Bill Coore + Ben Crenshaw restoration completed 2012
Style: True American links — wide fairways, native fescue rough, exposed coastal winds off the Atlantic. Plays much firmer and faster than parkland venues like Pinehurst or Oakmont.
U.S. Open history: 6th time hosting (1896, 1986, 1995, 2004, 2018, 2026)
Recent winners here: 2018 Brooks Koepka (-1, became first since Curtis Strange to win consecutive US Opens) · 2004 Retief Goosen (-4) · 1995 Corey Pavin (E)
Cheapest to most expensive. Pick one.
Three options matter. Peacock at $8 for the month catches everything — including Peacock-exclusive Featured Groups, which other services can't show you. That's the answer for 90% of viewers.
If you already own an antenna, the Saturday + Sunday afternoon final-round broadcast on NBC is free over the air — perfect if you just want trophy-day coverage. Pair it with Peacock for $8 and you have every minute of every round.
YouTube TV's 14-day free trial timed to start June 17 also covers the entire tournament free if you remember to cancel by July 1 — but you're managing a cancellation reminder.
NBC (broadcast, free over the air) and USA Network (cable). Peacock Premium streams every round, including Peacock-exclusive Featured Groups and Featured Holes coverage.
Yes, partially. NBC broadcast covers Saturday Round 3 and Sunday Round 4 — both free over the air with an antenna. Thursday and Friday rounds and early-weekend coverage are on USA Network (cable) — those require Peacock ($7.99/mo), a live-TV service, or cable. Peacock + an antenna covers everything for under $8.
Peacock Premium at $7.99 for the month. It streams every round live, including USA Network and NBC simulcasts plus Peacock-exclusive Featured Groups and Featured Holes. Cancel after the tournament.
Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. Sixth time hosting (1896, 1986, 1995, 2004, 2018, 2026). 2018 was won here by Brooks Koepka — his second straight US Open title.
Tee times typically run 6:45 AM ET (early groups) through 2:45 PM ET (final groups) Thursday and Friday. Weekend rounds tee off in afternoon waves. Live TV coverage starts at 6:30 AM ET on USA Network/Peacock Thursday + Friday; NBC takes over for weekend afternoon broadcasts.
Yes. Peacock Premium ($7.99/mo) streams every minute of the 2026 US Open live, including the USA Network feed for early rounds, the NBC feed for weekend rounds, and Peacock-exclusive Featured Groups (one camera crew following 4 players group-to-group all day) and Featured Holes (multi-angle coverage on 2-3 marquee holes).
Tiger has not announced a 2026 US Open commitment as of June 9. He typically uses majors as his primary competitive appearances given his limited post-surgery schedule. Final field confirmation typically arrives the week before play.
Four days — Thursday June 18 through Sunday June 21. Rounds 1 and 2 use the full 156-player field. A cut to the low 60 + ties happens after Round 2. Rounds 3 and 4 are the made-cut field. If there's a tie after 72 holes, a 2-hole aggregate playoff is held immediately Sunday.
