If you love to watch match play then this is the time for you to make excuses to watch a lot of golf on TV. However to watch live you better be an early riser since all the events are in Europe in 2023. I assume the Golf Channel will have plenty of coverage leading up to the actual match play days but below is information on how to watch the actual match days (USA information only).
September 2 & 3: The Walker Cup
The Walker Cup is the amateur match play event with the top males amateur golfers from the United States and Great Britain & Ireland. It is organized by the USGA (the governing body of golf in the United States) and the R&A (the governing body of golf for the rest of the world and headquartered in St. Andrews, Scotland).
You can view the Walker Cup on the Golf Channel. The event is being contended at The Old Course at St. Andrews so that is a treat to see as a golf fan.
Day 1: Saturday, September 2 starting at 8 am (est) Also, it will be rebroadcasted Saturday night at 9 pm est.
Day 2: Sunday, September 3, starting at 8 am (est) to 2 pm on Golf Channel.
September 22 to 24: The Solheim Cup
The ladies take the stage at Finca Cortesín in Andalucía, Spain. The USA and Europe both have stellar teams so it should be an exiting event. The Solheim cup record is 10 USA and Europe 7 but Europe has won the last two meetings (2019 at Gleneagles in Scotland and 2021 at The Inverness Club in Ohio).
When to watch the coverage live on the Golf Channel
Day 1, Friday: 2 am to 1 pm (est)
Day 2, Saturday: 2 am to 1 pm (est)
Day 3, Sunday: 5 to 11 am (est)
My bet is that there will be replays later in the day if you don’t care about seeing it live.
September 29 to October 1: Ryder Cup
The Ryder Cup is being contested at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club, Rome, Italy. This will be the 44th event with the USA leading in the series (27-14-2) but Europe has won nine of the last 13 editions of the Ryder Cup. The first 39 years the matches were between the USA and GB&I (Great Britain and Ireland) but in 1979 the GB&I team was expanded to include all of Europe; thus making the matches more competitive.
It is early to confirm but here is the broadcast schedule I found online:
Friday, September 29 – USA Network, 1:30 am to Noon (est)
Saturday, September 30 – USA Network, 1:30 to 3 am (est) and NBC 3 am to Noon (est)
Sunday, October 1 – 5:30 am to 1 PM (est) on NBC
Side Bar: There is also the Junior Solheim Cup and Junior Ryder Cup but they are not televised. You can follow the scoring online at the respective websites for the events.
