‘Early bird’ tickets now available for the 2023 Senior Open golf tournament at Royal Porthcawl

Tickets are now on sale for the 2023 Senior Open Presented by Rolex, which will take place between July 27-30 at the Royal Porthcawl golf club in Bridgend County Borough.

As Europe’s only senior major championship tournament, the event will mark the third time that Porthcawl will have hosted the Senior Open when it returns next summer for the first time since 2017.

Featuring some of the biggest names in the sport, golf fans can take advantage of Early Bird tickets, which start at £15 for adults and £10 for juniors aged 12-17 with free access for the under-12s.

Cllr Neelo Farr, Cabinet Member for Regeneration said: “With its stunning views across Swansea Bay to the Gower Peninsula, the Royal Porthcawl Golf Club has hosted numerous championship events including The Amateur and the Walker Cup, and the area is delighted to be once again hosting the Senior Open for the third time in a decade.

“When the Senior Open was first held here in 2014, more than 43,000 visitors travelled into the area, and the return of this prestigious event is destined to offer another fantastic boost for tourism and the local economy while showcasing Porthcawl once more as a prime visitor destination.

“Early Bird tickets for the 2023 Senior Open could also prove be the perfect Christmas gift for local golfing fans, and I hope that people will take full advantage of this offer.”
