"The Open will have a three hole play-off at The Open. If needed, that will be the first of its kind. We will play the 1st, 13th and 18th."
The announcement was on twitter but shortly after it went up, however, the post was deleted. Since 1986, the R&A has employed a four-hole aggregate playoff to decide the Open winner if there was a tie after 72 holes, followed by sudden death if things remain deadlocked after four holes. It was first used in 1989 when Mark Calcavecchia defeated Greg Norman and Wayne Grady at Royal Troon for the claret jug. Prior to that, the Open playoff was 18 holes from 1964 to 1985, with a 36-hole showdown before that. The PGA Championship uses a three-hole aggregate playoff, while the U.S. Open ditched its 18-hole playoff for a two-hole aggregate in 2018. The Masters is the only major that uses a sudden-death format... THE OPEN visits Royal Portrush for the first time since 1951, with Molinari defending. |

ANOTHER 12 PLAYERS have kept their Claret Jug dream alive.....from the 4 local qualifiers.....
American amateur Brandon WU continued his upward trajectory by finishing top of the standings at Fairmont St Andrews after shooting nine under to secure his ticket to Portrush. The 22-year-old finished T35 at Pebble Beach in the US Open last month and followed up that performance by attempting to secure his place at the final major of the year. Rounds of 64 and 67 ensured he finished three shots better off than Scotland’s Connor SYME (will play in his second Open having missed the cut in 2017 at Royal Birkdale) and five clear of pro Sam LOCKE (won the Silver Medal for leading amateur at Carnoustie last year), with all three qualifying for The Open. Andrew WILSON led the way at Notts while former English Amateur champion Thomas THURLOWAY, part of the Walker Cup squad, will also be at Portrush after finishing one shot behind Wilson. Ashton TURNER saw off Dave Coupland in a play-off that concluded at 9.30pm - he will contest for the Claret Jug for a second year in a row. The youngest qualifier – and the third amateur to make the cut – came at Prince’s in the shape of 18yo Curtis KNIPES, who beat a field paced with European Tour winners. Two-time Ryder Cup star David Howell missed out on the play-off by a shot on seven under, while Matthew Southgate and former Silver Medal winner Alfie Plant also came up short. Curtis is joined by Callum SHINKWIN, who will look to better his previous two Open performances in 2016 and 2017 when he missed the cut. Canadian Austin CONNELLY completed the successful trio from the course in Sandwich, having come through a play-off at Cinque Ports en route to finishing 14th at Royal Birkdale in 2017. A trio of English golfers prevailed at St Annes Old Links, with Jack SENIOR and former Amateur Championship winner Garrick PORTEOUS finishing tops. It is the second year in a row, 30-year-old Senior has been successful at the Lytham course, coming through Final Qualifying last year to play his second Open at Carnoustie. Matt BALDWIN was the third and final qualifier. Meanwhile, it was not to be for Dylan Keating – the teenage nephew of Boyzone star Ronan Keating – after the 16-year-old came through Regional Qualifying at County Louth. He shot rounds of 73 and 76 to finish five over, with fellow Regional Qualifier (and Dooks GC Pro) Daniel Sugrue’s Claret Jug dream also ending despite being a shot better off at four over.  |

Ash,
American OWGR #34 Kevin Na has withdrawn from The Open because of injury (neck problem) with Slovakian Rory Sabbatini coming in as his replacement at Royal Portrush. Charles Howell III has also withdrawn so next alternate Brian Harman is in to his spot. Howell III has played just two OPEN's since 2013 and both were missed cuts. Former world number one Martin Kaymer is now first reserve, followed by American Kevin Tway. |

BEEF Johnston was one of three players to punch their tickets to Royal Portrush along with runner-up Benjamin Hebert and Nino Bertasio, who all finished T-4 in the SCOTTISH Open.
DYLAN Frittelli won the John Deere Classic on Sunday at TPC Deere Run and thereby booked his ticket to Portrush, claiming the last spot into this week's OPEN, where he'll make his third straight appearance (MC,MC). |

Open in N Ir without Rory -- it's Hamlet without the Prince innit ?
 A shock and a shame. |

THE R&A should really be more progressive/proactive - If it was at the Masters and Tiger was one off the mark what would happen (TV rights, advertising, etc)
