In the United States: All of the action will be broadcast by NBC Sports online here. But you can also scroll down and see a feed of everything including hammer prelims, long jump prelims, etc. We also highly recommend that you download the NBC Sports App as you can watch it on your phone as well. On television, it will be on various NBC channels on cable as shown below (NBC’s daily schedule for all sports is here). For the most part, the early morning sessions will be on NBCSN and then NBC will pick it up most days at 10 ET. The evening sessions will be on NBC but we doubt they show everything so you’ll need to stream if you want to see it all.
