The British Open
The oldest of the four major championships, the Open Championship (aka the British Open), provides the perfect compliment to a golf vacation to Scotland, Ireland, England or Wales. Through the years there have been many memorable duels over Britain's famous links—none more so than the Nicklaus v Watson battle at Turnberry in 1977.
Why not see the next great chapter in golf history for yourself by attending the British Open Championship? Future venues will include the likes of Royal Lytham & St Annes, Muirfield, Royal Liverpool and St Andrews of course.
