The 2024 Open Championship begins this week. As a result, every player who is in the field is getting set for the fourth major championship at Royal Troon in Scotland.
Last year, Brian Harman won the Open by six strokes at Royal Liverpool for his first major championship.
So far this year in 2024, Scottie Scheffler won the Masters Tournament for the second time in three years, Xander Schauffele won the PGA Championship for his first major victory and Bryson DeChambeau won his second U.S. Open last month.
Everyone in the field is trying to join those three players as major champions in 2024. However, Scheffler, Schauffele and DeChambeau each want to become the first player since 2014 to win the Open and another major in the same year.
It is the 10 th time Royal Troon is hosting the Open and first since 2016 when Henrik Stenson shot 20-under 264 to win by three. Stenson’s 20-under 264 score set the lowest winning total by a champion and the lowest winning total in relation to par since 1963. He also set the final round scoring record of 63 to clinch his first major victory eight years ago.
In addition to USA, NBC and Peacock, The Golf Channel will have its programming throughout the tournament for pre- and post-round coverage.
The Open will also be broadcast on Sirius XM from 2:00 a.m. ET to the conclusion of play on Thursday and Friday. Sirius XM will also be on the air from 4:00 a.m. ET to the conclusion of play on Saturday and Sunday.
In addition, the Open Championship tournament hosts, the R&A, will have their coverage on their own network, the R&A TV.
