Watch PGA Championship 2026 live streams as the field heads into the final Sunday with plenty of players still in the mix to lift the Wanamaker Trophy at the Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania for the 108th edition of the tournament.
Here we explain how you can watch PGA Championship 2026 golf without cable and from anywhere with a VPN
The 2026 PGA Championship takes place from Thursday, May 14 to Sunday, May 17
► Sunday start time: 7:40 a.m. ET. / 4:40 a.m. PT / 12:40 p.m. BST / 9:40 p.m. AEST
• U.S. — CBS, ESPN, Golf Channel
• U.K. — Sky Sports
• AUS — Kayo Sports (7-day FREE trial)
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 30-day trial.
Reigning holder Scottie Scheffler has blown uncharacteristically hot and cold all week and finds himself five shots off the lead heading into the final 18 holes of the 7,394-yard Aronimink — a challenging round that, with its elusive fairways and 175 dastardly positioned bunkers, ranks among Golf Digest's toughest courses. That's surely too far off for a man even of his talents.
American Alex Smalley may never get a better chance to win a major, taking a two-shot lead into Sunday at 6 under. But there's a strong pack immediately behind him. Jon Rahm is two shots back, while Masters champ Rory McIlroy and former winner Xander Schauffele both shot excellent 66s yesterday to get themselves to 3 under and right back in contention.

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the golf on your usual subscription?
You can still watch the 2026 PGA Championship live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software can make your devices appear to be back in your home country regardless of where you are, making it ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN — we explain why in our NordVPN review.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Aussie service, you'd select Australia from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to your usual streaming service and watch PGA Championship 2026 golf.

What is the format for the 2026 PGA Championship?
The PGA Championship is the second major of the 2026 season and, like the others, is played as a four-round individual strokeplay competition.
There is a halfway cut, so only the top 70 positions plus ties go through to play the final two rounds.
If two or more players are tied for the lead after 72 holes, there will be a three-hole aggregate playoff to decide the winner.
