Overview

  • The USGA extended its media rights deal with NBCUniversal and its upcoming spin-off Versant for six years starting in 2027, ensuring flagship tournaments stay on those platforms through 2032.
  • USA Network will present about 35 hours of live U.S. Open and U.S. Women’s Open coverage each year under the new pact.
  • Golf Channel will serve as the exclusive cable home for multiple USGA events, including the U.S. Amateur series, U.S. Senior Women’s Open, U.S. Adaptive Open, Walker Cup and Curtis Cup.
  • Peacock will stream every USGA championship broadcast that airs on NBC, maintaining the tournament coverage’s direct-to-consumer availability.
  • The deal marks Versant’s first major sports-rights acquisition and is structured to transition these USGA properties into its portfolio after the planned Comcast spin-off.
