How to watch Olympics Golf 2024: live stream from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the golf via your usual streaming service?
You can still watch the golf live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for sports fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite – as recommended by the tech experts at TechRadar and Tom's Guide – is NordVPN.
There's a good reason you've heard of NordVPN. It's outstanding at unblocking streaming services, it's fast and it has top-level security features too. With over 5,000 servers, across 60 countries, and at a great price too, it's easy to recommend.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Download and install a VPN – as we say, our top choice is NordVPN.
2. Connect to the appropriate server location – open the VPN app, hit 'choose location' and select the appropriate location.
3. Go to the broadcaster's stream – head to your home broadcaster's site or app and watch just as if you were sitting on your sofa at home.
