Here we take a look at the Sky and BBC TV and radio coverage of this year's Open Championship from Royal St George's.
Open Championship TV Coverage 2021
The Open Championship returns in 2021 after getting cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The venue remains at Royal St George's and Shane Lowry is once again the defending champion for an event that should provide some high-quality golf action.
It has been 10 years since the Open went to the Kent golf course, and Darren Clarke emerged victorious by three-strokes back in 2011.
Jon Rahm will look to win back-to-back Majors after victory at the US Open, and Phil Mickelson, who came second in 2011, will try to add to his PGA Championship win earlier this year.
Sadly Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama will not be in the field after testing positive for Covid.
So where can you watch it? Well we have all the details below. Alternatively also take a look at our Open Championship Live Stream guide too.
