Three sporting events to watch this week: Your handy guide to sport on television

The tournament between the best women’s professional golfers from Europe and the United States takes place this week at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia. While the Solheim Cup is usually biennial, it is the second year in a row it will be staged as it’s changing to even-numbered years. Leona Maguire will, once again, be flying the flag for Ireland on the Europe team which is hoping to retain the title. – Friday-Sunday, Sky Sports
The 15th and final event of the 2024 Diamond League takes place this week in Brussels. Involving elite track and field athletes from around the world, the Memorial Van Damme at the King Baudouin Stadium is the unofficial end of an incredible season for World Athletics. – Friday-Saturday, BBC & Virgin Media
The 105th season of the National Football League (NFL) has just kicked off across the Atlantic. The regular season runs for four months, with the play-offs beginning in early January. The final game of the season, Super Bowl LIX (59) will take place Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, on February 9th. Last season, the defending champions Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers. Both sides will surely be in mix again this time, along with teams such as the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns and, maybe, even Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. One of the first big games of the season takes place on Monday night (Tuesday morning Irish time), with the Jets making the long trip to San Francisco. – Sep, 2024-Feb, 2025, Sky Sports
