Comprising of a field of 156 top golfers this years tournament is seen as being one of the most open in many years, mainly due to the injury of one certain Tiger Woods.

This is 155 yards longer than when the course was last used for the Open in 1998 and further additions have been made to the bunkers and mounding to provide even more of a challenge. As always the British weather will play its part as well, the tough course, adbsence of Tiger Woods and British weather will combine to surely provide us with one of the most exciting and unpredictable golf tournaments in many years.
