Lifelong Royal Liverpool Golf Club member, Matthew Jordan, will hit the opening tee shot at the Open Championship on Thursday.
Jordan has been a member at Hoylake since he was seven years old and punched his ticket to the 151st Open having come through Final Qualifying at West Lancashire Golf Club. The 27-year-old shot ten under par over the 36-hole event, a score only bettered by fellow countryman Matt Wallace who shot -11.
