John Deere Classic: How to watch, TV channel, live stream, course details and more

The PGA Tour moves from Michigan to Illinois for the 54th edition of the John Deere Classic, a low-scoring event that has been held at TPC Deere Run since 2000.

Last week's Rocket Classic was a birdie-fest and given the history of the John Deere Classic, some more low numbers will be required to lift the trophy.

How to watch the John Deere Classic, TV channel and live stream

The John Deere Classic will be shown live on Sky Sports Golf, with coverage of the first two rounds on Thursday and Friday beginning at 19:00 BST. The action begins at 17:00 on Saturday and Sunday.
