Golf's oldest major
For over 150 years, the world's best golfers have battled it out against the challenge of links golf at The Open, the oldest and most international Championship. Starting in 1860, eight professional golfers assembled at Prestwick to determine who would be the Champion Golfer.
The winner was to receive the Challenge Belt, which at the time was worth £25. It wasn't until 1873 that the Claret Jug was presented for the first time. The original Claret Jug is now on permanent display at the clubhouse at The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews.
Royal Liverpool Golf Club
Built in 1869, Royal Liverpool Golf Club is located on the edge of the Dee Shores and against the backdrop of the distant Welsh hills, Royal Liverpool Golf Club is a fine place to sense the history and traditions of the game and walk in the fairways of famous men.
Home of the 2014 Open Championship, the course at Royal Liverpool Golf Club may at first appear to look flat and benign, but don't let this be deceiving. In recent years golf architect Donald Steel has been commissioned, with great success, to restore and elevate the course to modern championship standards. The challenging layout will be remembered as golfers walk in the footsteps of golfing legends.

"I would like to say what a brilliant time me and my friends had in Belfast. The girls on the Golfbreaks desk were very welcoming and couldn't do enough to help you and very hard working. The golf was amazing and with Shane Lowry winning was the icing on the cake. I would definitely recommend using golf breaks and will definitely be using them again in the near future. "
