The 151st Open Championship has arrived, marking the culmination of the Major season with its fourth and final championship in 2023. Returning to the very grounds where Rory celebrated his last Major triumph, nine years ago when he proudly hoisted the coveted Claret Jug. This historic venue also holds fond memories of Tiger’s emotional victory in 2006, during which he relied on just one driver throughout the entire week—remarkably, in the opening round alone.
In the latest Tour Report, Elk and Diane reflect on the thrilling Genesis Scottish Open from the previous week, where McIlroy secured his 24th career win while Scotland’s Bob McIntyre experienced heartbreaking disappointment.
The Royal Liverpool Golf Club presents an array of unique challenges this year, and Elk provides valuable insights to help us navigate the course and strategize effectively amidst the alterations made for the 2023 tournament.
Notably, Elk and Diane have demonstrated their prowess in predicting Major champions, accurately selecting 5 out of the last 7 victors. Today, they share their expert recommendations for the week, including their Outright Favorites, Ones to Watch, and Dark Horses.

Chinese takeaway – classic! 🙂 I'm with you Dianne – would love to see Tommy get up for his first major! With his ball flight in the wind …. look out! Would love to see Cam get up for back-to-back victories also. Whichever way it goes, it's always the best week of golf all year!
Luv your analysis of the players guys , your choices all make sense
I like Hovland and Gooch as EW bets. What are Russells chances this week Diane? Top 10, top 20?
