2026 U.S. Open Viewing Guide: Full Broadcast & Streaming Schedule at Shinnecock Hills

The 2026 U.S. Open tees off Thursday, June 18 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, N.Y., marking the course's sixth hosting of the national championship.

Tournament Storylines

Two majors are already in the books for 2026: Rory McIlroy claimed his second Masters title, and Aaron Rai earned his breakthrough first major at the PGA Championship. Now the field descends on Long Island chasing what J.J. Spaun accomplished in 2025.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler headlines the event, chasing the career Grand Slam with a first U.S. Open title. Bryson DeChambeau, a two-time U.S. Open champion, is also in the field hunting an unprecedented third title after missing the cut in the first two majors of the year.

One historic footnote: for the first time in decades, neither Tiger Woods nor Phil Mickelson will be competing.
