The 153rd Open Golf Championship - British Open Championship 2025 British Open Thursday Day 1
It may have taken 68 years for The Open to return to Northern Ireland but it was more than worth the wait as home favourite Shane Lowry emerged triumphant at Royal Portrush. The Open will now head back to the County Antrim coast in 2025 for The 153rd Open.
When it comes to prestigious men’s tournaments, The Open Championship is up there with the best. Iconic links courses up and down the UK have hosted this tournament since its inception in 1860, including courses in the Scottish Highlands, Northern Ireland, and England’s Royals.
The Open Championship 2025 will be played at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland, which remains the only club outside of mainland Britain to host it.
