The 2027 Open Championship will take place at the Old Course at St. Andrews in Scotland.

The Royal & Ancient Golf Club confirmed Thursday that the 155th edition of golf’s oldest major will be at the “Home of Golf” from July 15-18, 2027.

The Open was last held at the historic links course in 2022, when Australia’s Cameron Smith rallied to win the 150th edition of the tournament.

“I’m hugely excited to be making this my first announcement at the R&A,” new R&A chief executive Mark Darbon said. “I’m looking forward to The Open’s return to St. Andrews every bit as much as the fans and the players. There is something special about The Open being played on the Old Course and so many of the great champions have walked these fairways since the first staging here in 1873.”

St. Andrews has hosted The Open 30 times dating back to 1873.

The 2027 tournament will mark the 100th anniversary of amateur Bobby Jones’ successful title defense in 1927.

The next two Opens will be held at Royal Portrush in 2025 and Royal Birkdale in 2026.
