Golf's final major tournament of the year, The Open Championship, is set to take place from July 18 to 21 at the Royal Troon Golf Club in South Ayrshire, Scotland. The field list for the DP World Tour co-sanctioned event sits strong at 156, and will feature some of the world's best professional and amateur players.

Golfers from the PGA Tour and DP World Tour will be battling it out on the par 71 course this week for a chance at winning the Claret Jug and 750 FedEx Cup points. There are currently 12 amateurs in the field for the 152nd edition of The Open Championship.

The 2024 Open Championship will see the most number of amateurs at the event since 1987.
