All Tiger Woods, all the time.

The British Open starts tomorrow at Royal Liverpool in Hoylake, England, and ESPN will be live-streaming Woods during the entire tournament.

“After missing the Masters and the U.S. Open due to back surgery, Tiger Woods will be making his first start of the season in a major and ESPN3 will offer a live feed following Woods for his entire round each day he plays,” ESPN said in a news release.

The network describes ESPN3 as “a live multi-screen digital network that provides thousands of live events annually, as well as replays of recent ESPN events.”

Woods tees off at 3:04 a.m. on Thursday and 8:05 a.m. on Friday. ESPN3 usually offers a replay of the events it broadcasts.

If Woods doesn’t make the cut, ESPN says other players will be featured.
