| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Open Championship at Royal St. George's Golf Club in Sandwich, Kent, England. Discusses who may qualify and play for the Open, as well as the role that the R & A (Royal and Ancient) plays in the tournament. States that "any changes needed to update the course so that it poses a stiff but fair challenge to the world's best golfers have to be agreed and implemented at least 18 months before the championship so the new turf or sand to bunkers has time to bed in properly." Mentions that the Sports Turf Research Institute provides advice which is "'extremely important as a number of our Open venues sit within environmentally designated land." |
