A big week for FIFA World Cup action, three games on each day of the week. But that’s not all, the PGA Tour’s greatest challenge starts Thursday with the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. Finally, the NBA Finals will wrap up this week, either with a Boston win on Tuesday (ABC 9 p.m.) or Thursday in a up-for-grabs game 7 (ABC 9 p.m.). We’ve also added Monday’s early-morning World Cup action to make sure you’re totally covered.

The U.S. gets back in action in South Africa Friday at 10 a.m. on ESPN against Slovenia.
Other World Cup action worth noting:
