2024 Open Championship Course: Royal Troon Golf Club
Troon is an iconic course for The Open Championship as the course starts easier, and gets tougher as the round goes on so players should get their birdies early, and hang on for Par's down the stretch.
The course is right on sea so the wind is the main defense this course has, but I have to be honest…the wind doesn't look too difficult this year as the highest winds right now are 15 MPH, and I don't take wind into account in handicapping until it gets to 20 MPH, and it doesn't look like we'll get near there.
The course has beautiful fairways with treacherous fescue and rough strategically placed along the fairways.
The greens have lots of mounds, bumps, and roll-off, but there looks to be sprinkles of rain throughout the week and throughout the tournament so they won't be US Open fast, which means good approach shots should be rewarded this week.
With the wind not being too difficult, I think we see a high number of greens in regulation, and those who figure out the putting on these greens have the opportunity to go low.
As Justin Thomas said after the PGA Championship, “It just doesn't matter what golf course you put us on, on planet Earth. If the greens are soft, we're going to tear it up”.
