Rolex & The Open: golf\u2019s oldest Major<\/h1>

The partnership between Rolex and golf began in 1967 when Arnold Palmer became the sport\u2019s first Testimonee. Since then, the brand has become Official Timekeeper and is a principal partner of many leading events and stakeholders in the game.<\/p>\n

Inaugurated in 1860, The Open is played every year on a rotating roster of historical courses in the United Kingdom. The 151st edition takes place at Royal\u00a0Liverpool Golf\u00a0Club.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n

A RENOWNED COURSE<\/h2>

Located on the shores of the Irish Sea, the course first played host to the tournament in 1897, with this year marking the 13th time it stages golf\u2019s original Championship. Rolex Testimonee Tiger Woods won his third Open there in 2006.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n <\/div>

STEEPED IN ELEGANCE AND TRADITION<\/h1>

Tradition has it that The Open is always played on a links course; that is, one located by the sea, featuring sandy soil and few water hazards or trees. Unpredictable weather conditions mean the 156 players competing in the tournament each year need their fair share of fighting spirit, self-control and humility given the potential for heavy showers, strong wind gusts and even heatwave conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n

UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS<\/h2>

With its unique past, the wild beauty of the coastal courses where it is played and its knowledgeable fans, The Open is forever etched in the history of world sport \u2013 from the duels of Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen in the 1920s to the battle between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus in 1977, or the tears of Tiger Woods upon winning his third trophy in 2006.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n <\/div>
