The 152nd Open will be played at Royal Troon from 14 – 21 July 2024. This year will mark the 10th time that the Championship has been staged in Troon. The Open was played here in 2016 when Henrik Stenson lifted the Claret Jug and became the first Swedish golfer to win The Open. Staged by The R&A.

The Open is golf’s original championship. Played since 1860 on iconic links golf courses, it is the sport’s most international major championship with qualifying events on every continent. For one week each year, the pursuit of the famous Claret Jug is the focus of the sporting world, followed globally by millions of fans.

Royal Troon’s Old Course was founded in 1878, expanded to 18 holes 10 years later and re-designed by five-time Champion Golfer James Braid ahead of its first Open in 1923.

Designed in the traditional out-and-back manner of the Old Course at St Andrews, Troon’s test begins with a gentle opening through some of the most striking links land to be found at any of The Open venues and concludes with a back nine as tough as any finish in the world. Troon most recently staged the Championship in 2016, when Henrik Stenson prevailed in a stunning duel with Phil Mickelson.
