British Open 2018 TV Schedule on Golf Channel & NBC
It’s early to rise for golf fans in the States as the 147th Open Championship, a.k.a. British Open, tees off at Carnoustie Golf Links in Scotland for the year’s third major tournament.
Among the world’s best players hoping to win the Claret Jug are Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Jon Rahm, Justin Rose, Rickie Fowler, Jason Day, Rory McIlroy and defending champion Jordan Spieth.
“It might be the most wide-open major championship,” says Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee. “If you’re short, it’s going to make you long. If you’re old, it’s going to make you young. If you’re crooked, you can play around that and it won’t penalize you.…Typically you go into a major and really 10 people you look at and say the winner is going to come from that group. You could multiple that by five this week.”
