SiriusXM will once again act as the national radio broadcaster for the 118th U.S. Open Championship, offering listeners coverage from Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, NY. SiriusXM's programming will feature a minimum of 32 hours of live hole-by-hole coverage across all four rounds of play on June 14-17. Live championship coverage will begin each championship day at 12pm ET on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio.

SiriusXM's Brian Katrek will anchor the play-by-play broadcast with former PGA Tour pro Mark Carnevale serving as the analyst in the booth. A team of roving reporters, including Fred Albers, Maureen Madill, John Maginnes, Dennis Paulson and Bill Rosinski will provide commentary from around the course. SiriusXM's Debbie Doniger will be on site conducting pre- and post-round interviews with the competitors.

SiriusXM's Taylor Zarzour and former Tour pros Carl Paulson and Mark Lye will host live pre- and post-round broadcasts from Shinnecock each championship day. Three-time U.S. Open champion and SiriusXM host Hale Irwin will co-host the pre- and post-round show on Sunday.

"As this exciting field competes for the U.S. Open for the fifth time at historic Shinnecock Hills, we're proud to present SiriusXM listeners with the best audio coverage available of the championship," said SiriusXM's President/Chief Content Officer Scott Greenstein. "We're also pleased to enhance the week's coverage with on-site broadcasts from multiple shows which will offer a unique perspective and add to the excitement leading up to championship play."
