5 reasons why British Open will be among best ever
The British Open, or as it's more affectionately called in the United Kingdom, The Open, tees off Thursday at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. Here are five reasons why this year’s British Open could be one of the best in the event's storied history. So, why hasn’t Portrush hosted the Open since 1951, the only other time the tournament was played outside England and Scotland? A big reason was civil strife that broke out in Northern Ireland that plagued the region for nearly 30 years from 1969 to 1998. One side wanted Northern Ireland to remain a part of the United Kingdom, while the other side fought to have Northern Ireland disband from the UK and join the Republic of Ireland as one united country.
