The 150th Open

The 150th Open at St Andrews

The Experience St Andrews is an Authorised Provider of official Open Ticket packages. Choose from a series of programs spectating and playing golf or sightseeing before, during or after the tournament.

The historic Old Course, St Andrews

The 150th Open will be the 30^th time that St Andrews has hosted the world’s oldest major. It most recently staged the tournament in 2015, when Zach Johnson was crowned “Champion Golfer of the Year”. It has produced an illustrious list of winners over the years, including Bobby Jones (1927), Jack Nicklaus (1970 & 1978), Seve Ballesteros (1984), Nick Faldo (1990) and Tiger Woods (2000 & 2005).

The Old Course is unique in that it owes very little to mankind in its design and layout, thanks to a stunning natural setting, a ready-made landscape of legendary beauty and suitability. Created by nature and only touched by humans in the later stages of her evolution, the Old Lady serves as a masterclass to any would-be golf course designer.
