Get ready for the biggest British Open yet.
The 150th Open at St. Andrews in Scotland is expected to draw a record-breaking 290,000 fans in July.
The R&A announced that more than 1.3 million ticket applications were received, which resulted in the highest-ever number of general admission tickets. That isn’t really that surprising given that this was the first year the championship instituted a ticket lottery, not to mention that the Open returns to the Old Course, which is widely considered to be “the Home of Golf.”
