US Open 2021 golf tournament is holding the third round today, with more action through Sunday, June 20. Coverage is airing on NBC, Golf Channel and Peacock. 
But you can watch your country's coverage no matter where in the world you are by grabbing a VPN.

The final round of the U.S. Open live streams is upon us, and the leaders include two names you may not have expected. Mackenzie Hughes (Canada), Russell Henley (USA) and Louis Oosthuizen (South Africa) are all tied at 5 under. 

That said, defending champ Bryson DeChambeau (USA) and Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland) are within striking distance at 3 under. Don't go scrolling for Phil Mickelson (USA), as he's at 7 over, and well out of contention after a bad weekend at the office.

Torrey Pines in San Diego is hosting US Open golf tournament for a second time. In 2008, Tiger Woods won an epic Monday playoff over Rocco Mediate.

This time, to maintain health and safety protocols, there will be limited fans in attendance.

Here's how to watch US Open 2021 golf live online, wherever you are in the world.

Sling TV

Sling TV is one of the best values among cable alternatives. The Sling Blue package comes with 30-plus channels in the lineup, including NBC (in select markets). You'll need the Sports Extra add-on to get the Golf Channel, though.
