Watch Open de España live on Sky Sports Golf, fronted by Rob Lee with Dominik Holyer
The eleventh of October 2026 finds the European Tour of golf on the edge of Spain, where the Open de España programme will be shown live from 12:00 UK time. The broadcast is presented by Rob Lee, a name familiar to Sky Sports audiences, and the bulk of the live commentary will come from Dominik Holyer, who leads the on-the-day team as main commentator.
For those tuning in, the programme is available on Sky Sports Golf and the broader Sky Sports Main Event feed. Readers who prefer American or worldwide channels can also follow the action through ESPN, CBS, NBC or the Golf Channel, with a global feed on offer for those who want the international view.
The commentary team
Dominik Holyer will lead the live commentary team, with Tony Johnstone and Mark Roe acting as analysts on the main programme. This roleset-up mirrors the structure used across the DP World Tour, where Dominik Holyer is expected to set the pace and the two analysts pick up on scoring and timing as the programme develops.
Two further commentators will be working from the course itself: Jamie Spence and Inci Mehmet. Their on-course coverage is intended to give viewers a live, eyes-on look at the programme as it runs, complementing the studio-style commentary coming through the Sky Sports feeds.
Interviews are being handled by the reporter Katherine Downes, who conducts both in-round and post-round questions. Her presence rounds out the broadcast team, ensuring that player and analyst interviews are captured throughout the programme.
A note on Mark Roe
Of the analysts, Mark Roe carries a particularly notable pedigree among golf commentators. He is widely credited with winning worldwide respect for the way he handled being disqualified from the 2003 Open Championship because of a scorecard error. That reputation as a principled, reliable analyst is worth remembering as he joins the team this time around.
For readers who want to know more about Mark Roe's background, his career and credentials are documented on his Wikipedia page, which can be found at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Roe.
What to expect
The Open de España programme is one of the key stages in the European Tour, and this year's lineup of commentators should give viewers a comprehensive view of how the programme plays out. With Rob Lee presenting and Dominik Holyer anchoring the commentary, the programme is in good hands.
Whether you are watching on Sky Sports, one of the American channels, or a worldwide feed, the combination of studio commentary, on-course coverage and interviews should make for a compelling programme. Tune in from 12:00 UK time on the eleventh of October and catch the Open de España live.
