The British Open, or as it’s affectionately known, The Open Championship - the granddaddy of all golf tournaments. It’s been around longer than your great-great-grandpa’s favorite putter. A grand spectacle of golfing prowess, known far and wide as one of the illustrious quartet of major tournaments on the PGA Tour.

The tournament likes to keep things interesting by doing a little dance around nine charming courses in Great Britain. The inaugural British Open took place in 1860 at the prestigious Prestwick Golf Club in Bonny, Scotland.

The British Open, a tournament as elusive as a unicorn riding a unicycle. Yet, it has witnessed the triumphs of countless players, from sprightly young prodigies to seasoned veterans who have more holes-in-one than a Swiss cheese factory.
