Trump's Turnberry rejected again as The Open names 2029 venue
The Open Championship will be contested at Carnoustie in three years' time.
Tournament organisers of The Open Championship have confirmed where golf's oldest major will be contested in three years' time.
The R&A announced on Monday that The Open will return to Carnoustie in 2029 for the first time in 11 years.
In total, Carnoustie has hosted the tournament eight times, with Padraig Harrington (2007), Tom Watson (1975) and Gary Player (1968) among those to have etched their name onto the Claret Jug.
The 157th Open Championship will be played over 19-22 July 2029.
Mark Darbon, the chief executive of the R&A, said: "Carnoustie is a world-class championship venue where some of golf's greatest players have lifted the Claret Jug and the return of The Open to these famous links after more than a decade will give fans the opportunity to be part of another memorable chapter in the championship's history.
"We want to continue to deliver an outstanding experience for players, fans and our partners at one of the world's great sporting events and so have worked closely in collaboration with Carnoustie to help ensure their plans to enhance the venue also support successful stagings of The Open in the years ahead."
