    The Open Championship will return to Carnoustie in 2029, for the first time in 11 years.

    Francesco Molinari won the 2018 event at the Angus course, which also hosted the last time a Scottish winner took the Claret Jug when Paul Lawrie triumphed in 1999.

    Other Carnoustie Open winners include Padraig Harrington (2007), Tom Watson (1975) and Gary Player (1968).

    In all, the course has hosted the event eight times since 1931.

    New Zealand’s Ryan Fox won last year’s Open at Royal Birkdale, the 2027 event will be at the Old Course in St Andrews and the 2028 staging will be at Royal Lytham.

    The 157th Open will be played from 19-22 July, 2029.

    And Royal & Ancient Club chief executive Mark Darbon commented: “Carnoustie is a world-class championship venue where some of golf’s greatest players have lifted the Claret Jug and the return of The Open to these famous links after more than a decade will give fans the opportunity to be part of another memorable chapter in the championship’s history.

    “We want to continue to deliver an outstanding experience for players, fans and our partners at one of the world’s great sporting events and so have worked closely in collaboration with Carnoustie to help ensure their plans to enhance the venue also support successful stagings of The Open in the years ahead.”
