Congratulations Padraig
Cheers again from Niles, Scruffy’s English pal.
Each year, Scruffy invites me to chat with you about The Open Championship, the most anticipated contest in golf, which is being played July 19 thru 22, on arguably the most difficult course on the planet. If you have any doubt about its difficulty...just ask Jean van de Velde who, while wading around in the Barry Burn, engraved his name in golf history during a play-off in the 1999 Open Championship.

The Open, as the Brits love to call it, is the oldest championship of golf.
Beginning with the first champion
Willie Park (Oct. 17, 1860)when the field was just eight strong.
