The Golf Channel (owned by NBC Sports) is the ultimate destination for everything golf. It covers PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, DP World Tour, and Korn Ferry Tour.

Apart from that, the network also broadcasts leading championships like Ryder Cup, the Masters, and the U.S Open.

There is no standalone Golf Channel app for FireStick. However, services like YouTube TV, Sling TV, and Hulu include the Golf Channel in their standard base plans.

However, you can also watch the Golf Channel for FREE via unofficial apps like Cinema HQ, TFlix & Netfly.

However, please keep in mind that official apps are geo-restricted, and unofficial ones stream links from unverified sources. So be sure to use a VPN. Surfshark is our #1 choice.

You can also watch the Golf Channel live for free on FireStick from all over the world using free sports streaming websites on a browser. I use Amazon Silk Browser.

However, make sure to install and use SurfShark VPN on FireStick because free websites do not broadcast officially and require a VPN to hide your online activity.

Step 1: Open Surfshark VPN on FireStick and connect it to the Hong Kong/US server.

Step 2: Go to FireStick Home
