The Kenya Opens seems to stand undeterred in its decades of survival on various Tours’, comprising 21 years on the Safari Tour, 27 years on the Challenge Tour, and now 5 years and counting on the DP World Tour. As the star-studded field gears up for the competition in Nairobi from February 22nd until February 25th, where can fans watch all the action?

This year’s edition of the famous event is set to be jam-packed with entertainment. Even though the defending champion, Jorge Campillo, is not on the field this year, many past champions have agreed to ornate the Muthaiga GC’s greens beautifully.

The event, rooted in a rich historical heritage, has a variety of options to watch. For US citizens, the at-home experience will be tackled by the Golf Channel and the NBC Sports App from Thursday to Sunday. The live stream of all of the rounds of the event will, however, be scheduled early in the morning.

  • Thursday (1st Round): 5-10 AM
  • Friday (2nd Round): 5-10 AM
  • Saturday (3rd Round): 4:30–9 AM
