Fox Sports is airing 45 hours of live coverage from the 119th U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, where Brooks Koepka will defend.

Fox Sports, the domestic broadcast partner of the USGA, will air nearly 140 hours of live coverage across eight 2019 USGA championships, including 45 hours on Fox, FS1 and Fox Deportes and continuous live streaming on the Fox Sports app from the 119th U.S. Open at Pebble Beach (Calif.) Golf Links.

Fox Sports will also provide live coverage from the U.S. Women’s Open, U.S. Senior Open, U.S. Senior Women’s Open, U.S. Amateur, U.S. Women’s Amateur, U.S. Junior Amateur and U.S. Girls’ Junior.

Two films in the “Epics” series will be featured around U.S. Women’s Open and U.S. Open coverage. The story of Michelle Wie’s road to victory in the 2014 U.S. Women’s Open will air on FS1 from 7:30-8:30 p.m. EDT on May 30. Tiger Woods and his unparalleled 15-stroke triumph in the 2000 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach will be featured in a second film. The program will air on Fox from 4:30-5:30 p.m. EDT on June 9 and on FS1 from 7-8 p.m. on June 12.

Additionally, the USGA will provide live streaming from the U.S. Open and the U.S. Women’s Open on its digital platforms – usopen.com, uswomensopen.com and the U.S. Open and U.S. Women’s Open apps, as well as live streaming of the U.S. Senior Open, U.S. Amateur and U.S. Women’s Amateur on usga.org.

The USGA’s global digital coverage will include exclusive live action on three channels – two featured groups channels and a featured holes channel – on usopen.com and the U.S. Open app during the first and second rounds of the U.S. Open (June 13-14). The USGA will also broadcast this year’s U.S. Open and U.S. Women’s Open to more than 190 countries and territories on six continents through its international broadcast partners.

For the second consecutive year, Rolex will be the exclusive presenting partner of coverage for seven USGA championships, including the U.S. Women’s Open, U.S. Senior Open, U.S. Amateur and U.S. Women’s Amateur. Rolex’s commitment will allow an uninterrupted broadcast of these championships, providing fans hours of continuous live action.

“Fox Sports continues to provide an innovative viewing experience that elevates our championships, both amateur and professional, and celebrates the greatness of the game and its storied champions,” said USGA CEO Mike Davis. “Rolex’s support as a presenting partner has proven to be a significant addition and allowed viewers to be more engaged due to the expanded coverage and in-depth perspectives on the golfers, venues and championships.”
