The start date for the 151st Open is fast approaching as the world's best golfers prepare to compete for the final major of the year on offer.
Last year's tournament, staged at St Andrews, was won by Cameron Smith, who posted an impressive score of -20 to edge out Cameron Young.
It remains to be seen who will come out on top at the 2023 Open, though it promises to be a fascinating four-day event. Those who part of the breakaway LIV Golf tour will be permitted to play at Hoylake, provided they have met the qualification criteria to participate.
