Stream Ryder Cup day 3 free using YouTube TV (5-day free trial) — unlock using NordVPN

Europe looked to have started well on day 3 of the Ryder Cup, but team USA have hit back with Bryson DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler helping lead the charge.

But before you pay for a subscription, here’s a tip: you can watch the Ryder Cup for free (or should we say, fore free?).

How to watch the Ryder Cup for free

RyderCup.com offers a FREE live stream

RyderCup.com offers a FREE live stream, including featured matches, 3D models of each hole, and more. We're tuned into it right now, and it's perfect for watching Rory McIlroy’s 'rowdy' attempt to help Europe Captain Luke Donald hold off the American rally. The streaming quality is very good and you can expect a full replay.

✈️ OUTSIDE THE US? Free coverage on RyderCup.com only works with a U.S.-based IP. If you're abroad, use a VPN to access the final round stream.

We recommend NordVPN to unblock RyderCup.com free stream — it’s fast, secure, reliable and relatively cheap.

How to unblock RyderCup.com with a VPN

A good VPN will let you set your IP address to (almost) any country, so you can tune into any streaming service around the world. It's ideal if you're abroad.

There's a ton of VPNs around, but many are not particularly good or reliable. That's why we love NordVPN – it's secure and works with free streams including the RyderCup.com website & app.

Get 73% off NordVPN + 3 MONTHS FREE with this deal

<p>There's a good reason you've heard lots of people recommend NordVPN – it's the best of its kind, outstanding at unblocking streaming services, highly secure and fast. You can also get 3 months free and if you don't like it after 30-days, NordVPN will give you your money back.

✅ Using a VPN to watch the Ryder Cup match is simple.

1. Sign up and install NordVPN (3 months free + 30 day trial)

2. Connect to a U.S. server — open the VPN app, hit 'choose location' and select a U.S.-based server.

3. Go to RyderCup.com and watch the free live stream!

⬇️ As you can see below, we're watching live right now with Nord and it works beautifully. RyderCup.com will also provide a full replay and highlights of the biennial showdown.

Where to watch the Ryder Cup in 4K for free

If you care about quality over cost, DirecTV will offer a 4K UHD feed from Bethpage on channel 105 (Live 4K Events) or channel 106 (Live 4K Sports).

These are dedicated 4K channels that only operate during scheduled live events. You can also use channels 104 and 105 to find live sports, depending on the NBC and Golf Channel 4K feed availability.

DirecTV Stream costs from $65 per month but new users get a 5-day free trial, which is more than enough to watch the Ryder Cup for free and in 4K.

Can I watch the Ryder Cup replay free without cable?

Yes – if you consider using a free trial. Plenty of live TV services including Fubo, DirecTV and YouTube TV carry NBC and the Golf Channel, meaning you can watch the Ryder Cup drama without any 'green fees', so to speak.

Fubo, for example, costs from $55 per month and comes with a 5-day free trial, more that sufficient to watch the Ryder Cup replay as Luke Donald attempts to win his first Ryder Cup as Captain.

How to listen to the Ryder Cup for free

For those on move, SiriusXM will offer radio coverage to golf fans in the US. SiriusXM is not free per se, but some vehicles may have the ad-supported Free Access plan. Listen from 7 am ET on Saturday and noon ET on Sunday, and continue through the final hole of each day’s play.

You can listen to live audio on BBC 5 Live (U.K. only). Again, you can use a VPN to access your usual free stream when outside Great Britain.

And you can listen in on Ryder Cup Radio.
