LONDON: The British Open is to return to Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland in 2025, organisers the R&A announced on Wednesday.

The links course previously hosted the championship in 1951 and again in 2019, when Irishman Shane Lowry won the claret jug.

R&A chief executive Martin Slumbers said: “We could not be more thrilled to be bringing the Open back to Royal Portrush in 2025.

“There will be huge excitement among golf fans around the world to see the best men’s players facing the challenge of these magnificent links once again.” US golfer Collin Morikawa won this year’s British Open at Royal St George’s in July.
