Ten Open Championship venues that have each hosted the Claret Jug at least twice since 1995. St Andrews and Carnoustie are public and bookable — start there. But Muirfield, Royal Troon, Royal Lytham & St Annes, Royal Birkdale, Royal St George's, Royal Liverpool, Royal Portrush, and Turnberry range from resort bookings to serious club connections. Eight of ten venues are private or resort-only. The Open rota is a links odyssey across Scotland, England, and Northern Ireland — a lifelong pursuit across the most storied turf in golf.
