As Royal Portrush Golf Club prepares to welcome nearly 300,000 spectators for The R&A 153rd Open Championship, we’ve captured a moment of calm….a beautiful contrast to the electric week that lies ahead – starting tomorrow.
This short video is a collection of photos and clips taken today around Portrush, just before the action begins. The stunning double rainbow (taken on St Patrick’s Day) feels like a good omen, while today’s beach scenes from our morning swim and office views overlooking Royal Portrush Golf Club show the course and the town in all its glory and peaceful anticipation.
The economic and cultural impact of hosting The Open is enormous, particularly for Northern Ireland and the island of Ireland as a whole. The legacy will be felt for years. hashtagPortrush is Open for business!
For those lucky enough to attend, as if you needed any more reason to be excited, here is your pre-tournament inspiration. The stage is set. Let the magic begin. Rory McIlroy | Shane Lowry
