The 2022 U.S. Women’s Open, the biggest women’s tournament of the year, kicks off this week at Pine Needles in North Carolina. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the tournament.
How to watch the U.S. Women’s Open
This year the best players in golf will compete for the U.S. Women’s Open crown at another classic American golf course. Designed by legendary architect Donald Ross, Pine Needles has previously hosted three Women’s Opens in 1996, 2001 and 2007.
One of the primary stories heading into the second major of the year is the return of American star Nelly Korda. Korda has been sidelined since March while recovering from a blood clot which forced her to miss the first major of the year, the Chevron Championship. Korda has never won the U.S. Women’s Open, though she captured her first major victory at last year’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.

She’ll face a stout field featuring the player who took over the No. 1 ranking from Korda, Jin Young Ko, world No. 3 Lydia Ko and rising star Jennifer Kupcho, who won her first major at the Chevron in March. Michelle Wie West will also be in the field in what she has said will be her last LPGA start for the foreseeable future.
And there’s the money. Earlier this year, the USGA announced the U.S. Women’s Open purse would nearly double to $10 million in 2022, by far the largest purse in LPGA history, thanks to new presenting sponsor ProMedica. The winner will take a home a whopping $1.8 million.
Fortunately for golf fans, the biggest event of the year has the most extensive live coverage as well. NBC and USA will provide the TV coverage, and Peacock will be the streaming home for the U.S. Women’s Open, with some exclusive coverage during the first two rounds.
