US Open 2026: TV coverage, latest schedule from Shinnecock Hills and how to watch or stream on Sky Sports Golf
Scottie Scheffler targets the career Grand Slam and Masters champion Rory McIlroy also challenges major victory at the US Open; TV coverage, UK and Ireland start times, Shinnecock Hills course guide and how to follow the action this week from New York
Monday 15 June 2026 09:33, UK
Scottie Scheffler has the chance to make major history this week at the US Open, with extended coverage from Shinnecock Hills exclusively live on Sky Sports.
The world No 1 completed the third leg of the career Grand Slam at The Open last summer, meaning Scheffler now needs US Open victory to become only the seventh player in the men's game to have won all four major titles.
Scheffler is already a winner on the PGA Tour this season and is the pre-tournament favourite to claim a fifth major victory in as many years, with the final round in New York falling on his 30th birthday.

Rory McIlroy successfully defended his Masters title in April and is looking to add to his major tally, 15 years on from his previous US Open win, while Cameron Young and England's Tommy Fleetwood both search for their major breakthrough.
Former US Open champions Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau are among the LIV Golf contingent in action, with JJ Spaun returning as defending champion after last year's victory at Oakmont.

US Open course: Shinnecock Hills Golf Club
This year's US Open will be sixth hosted at Shinnecock Hills and the first since 2018, when Brooks Koepka held off a final-round 63 from Fleetwood to claim a one-shot victory and successfully defend his title.
The New York venue will be set up at 7,440 yards and play as a par-70, with the course widely regarded as one of the hardest in the world and the 11th hole offering one of the toughest par-threes on the major roster.
The US Open was first held there in 1896 but didn't return until 1986, when Raymond Floyd won, while Corey Pavin (1995) and Retief Goosen (2004) are others to have won US Opens there.
