Live stream Zozo Championship 2020
The Zozo Championship 2020 takes place at Sherwood Country Club in Sherwood, California between Thursday, October 22 and Sunday, October 25. Full TV channel and PGA golf live stream details are below
It may only be the second year the event has been staged, but the Zozo Championship is already regarded as one of the Tour’s most prestigious tournaments and will be the final warm-up for most of the world’s top players before The Masters takes place this November.
As such, it’s got an A-grade field that sees 21 of the world’s top 25 playing in Lake Sherwood this week, including last year’s Zozo winner Tiger Woods and four-time major champion Rory McIlroy, as well as Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa (who grew up in the area) and Phil Mickelson. Other big names teeing-off include Rickie Fowler, Tommy Fleetwood, Tony Finau, Justin Rose and Jordan Spieth – as well as new fan favorite Harry Higgs.
Only three of the world’s best won’t be strolling the fairways of the par-72 Jack Nicklaus signature course. Current world no.1 Dustin Johnson continues to recover after testing positive for Covid-19 prior to last week’s CJ Cup, while Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka have also opted-out for various reasons.
The main storyline once again is Tiger’s pursuit of that elusive 83rd PGA win, which would see him surpass childhood idol Sam Snead and become the most successful golfer in Tour history (based solely on Tour wins and not taking into account major victories).
Throw in the fact that this $8 million tournament is a no-cut event and fans have an exciting weekend of golf to look forward to, so read on as we explain how to get a Zozo Championship live stream and watch PGA golf online from anywhere.

2020 Zozo Championship: live stream PGA golf in the US
In the US, coverage of the Zozo Championship is exclusive to NBC and its golf-specific offshoots, whether it’s a PGA golf live stream you’re after or you want to watch on linear TV.
Early coverage of all rounds is available on a streaming-only basis with an NBC Sports Gold PGA Tour Live subscription, which will get you in on the action every day from the first tee shots at 12.45pm ET / 9.45am PT right through until the final putts around 8pm ET / 5pm ET.
On linear TV, NBC’s Golf Channel will be showing the final few hours of coverage from Thursday to Sunday at 5-8pm ET / 2-5pm PT. If you’ve got NBC with cable, you just need to head to NBCSports.com and you can log-in with details of your TV provider for a live stream.
How to watch a PGA golf live stream without cable
If you don’t, then you can still catch all the most dramatic moments from this week’s Zozo Championship with the help of an over-the-top streaming service.
For this event, we’d recommend using Sling TV, which includes NBC’s Golf Channel in the Sports Extra add-on offered for its Blue package. Why Sling? In this case, because if you can content yourself with watching YouTube highlights of Thursday’s first round, Sling’s FREE 3-day trial offer will let you watch the best bits of the Zozo Championship without dropping a dime.
Just remember to cancel in time if you’re not sold on it as a long-term cord cutting solution (though it is a great one), but should you like what you see and decide to keep it, Sling Blue costs $30 a month and Sports Extra is $10 on top of that. Alternatively, you can go all-in and save with a combined Sling Blue + Orange bundle for $45 p/m. Throwing in Sports Extra again at ten bucks and you’ve got yourself a quality cable replacement solution for just $55 a month.
Get a Zozo live stream from abroad
If you’re a US resident out of the country and want to access one of the above options just like you normally would, then you can use a VPN to effectively transport your computer, phone or tablet’s IP back home.

How to watch the Zozo Championship: PGA golf live stream in Canada
Golf fans in Canada will find that NBC’s Golf Channel has a Canadian twin that usually follows the same schedule as the US.
However, this only applies to linear TV coverage, not streaming, and a quick look at logging in to watch the Golf Channel online through a cable provider doesn’t reveal any Canadian options, with Bell, Rodgers and other big telecoms players not being listed.
Instead, Canadian networks CTV and TSN usually pick up the slack when it comes to extended streaming coverage – but in this instance, the Zozo Championship is conspicuously absent from both of listings of both broadcasters, so it looks like it’s cable-or-bust for golf fans in the Great White North this week.
Remember that if you can normally access golf coverage in Canada, you can make use of a VPN to access all the services and content you would back home.
