Tiny viewing “story” guide

Imagine it’s Saturday: you catch the early‑round grind on ESPN+ , flipping between Featured Groups and Featured Holes to see the roars at the stadium‑style 16th. As the leaders move toward the back nine, you switch to Golf Channel , then glide into CBS ’s broadcast as the sun sets over TPC Scottsdale and the final pairings fight through the noise. That mix of streaming and traditional TV is how most fans follow the WM Phoenix Open in 2026.

To watch the Waste Management Phoenix Open in 2026, use ESPN+ (PGA Tour Live) for full‑day streaming, Golf Channel/Peacock for TV and streaming coverage, and CBS (plus live‑TV streaming services) for the weekend broadcasts.
