The 2026 Open Championship will conclude on Sunday, July 19, with Round 4 at Royal Birkdale in Southport, England. You can find the full Open Championship times for Sunday’s final round below this post once they are released on Saturday night.
Once the final pairing is completed in Round 3 on Saturday evening at Royal Birkdale, tournament officials will create times for Sunday’s final round of the 2026 Open Championship. Until then, we won’t know what the tee times will be.
There are a few things we do know. Players will be re-matched on Sunday based on their position on the leaderboard following the third round. The top two players on the leaderboard will compete in the final pairing on Sunday morning, while the competitors furthest from the leaderboard will open the round in the early morning.
Looking back at last year’s Open Championship, we can get a good idea of what the Round 4 tee times will be this year. On Sunday at the 2025 Open Championship at Royal Portrush, winner Scottie Scheffler and Haotong Li exit the final pairing at 9:30 am ET. Matti Schmid and Riki Kawamoto open Sunday’s round at 3:30 am ET.
We can expect the Sunday tee times for the 2026 Open Championship to fall in the same window.
You can watch Sunday’s final round of the Open Championship on TV via NBC and USA. USA starts coverage at 4 am ET, followed by NBC at 7 am ET. You can also stream broadcasts online via Peacock, including coverage of Round 4’s featured team and live broadcasts of NBC’s Sunday TV.
Full round 4 times and Open Championship pairings will be produced below once determined.
