Located on the coast of north west England, just above the sporting-rich city of Liverpool, the links course last hosted the Open in 2017. There, Jordan Spieth won his third Major title by three-shots over fellow American, Matt Kuchar.
Over the years, Irishman Pádraig Harrington won his second Claret Jug in a row with a winning score of three-over-par in 2008, and Tom Watson won his last of five Opens, around the Merseyside course.
While there is still a year to go until the 154th Open, which takes place between 16th and 19th June, package options are now available for those that wish to attend.
A brand new ticket-inclusive travel incentive, called the Destination Package, will combine any ticket, from Classic to Signature, with tailored accommodation and travel options, pricing from £845 per person.
