How to watch the 2024 AIG Women’s British Open
Last updated:
Everything you need to know about how to watch the action from St Andrews when the 2024 AIG Women’s British Open tees off from August 22-25.
Sky Sports will again be home to the AIG Women’s British Open for those looking to watch the action unfold from the iconic Old Course at St Andrews for the final Major of the year.
The award-winning golf broadcaster extended their partnership rights to The Open and AIG Women’s Open earlier this year which will see them provide coverage of the showpiece Majors until 2028.
Proceeds from the agreement will contribute towards The R&A’s commitment to invest £200 million in golf over 10 years, supporting the development of golf internationally through participation initiatives and the organization of inspirational golf championships.
Martin Slumbers, CEO of The R&A, said: “Our partnership with Sky Sports has enabled us to deliver outstanding live coverage of our championships to fans, as well as providing important revenues which support our broader activities to develop golf around the world and sustain the sport for current and future generations.
“The live broadcast continues to push boundaries and use technology to give viewers a deeper understanding and appreciation of the skill required by the world’s best players and presents the drama and excitement of our championships in a dynamic and entertaining way.
“We look forward to continuing our work with Sky Sports over the next five years.”

How to watch the AIG Women’s Open for free
Securing yourself a quality Virtual Private Network (VPN) is your best method for keeping up to speed with the action from St Andrews without needing to fork out for a Sky Sports broadcast subscription.

It’s completely legal, provided you are not using the connection to commit other illegal activities, and Today’s Golfer highly recommends ExpressVPN.
