The Senior British Open is to remain at Royal Portrush Golf Club for the next two years. The event has been held at the links course in Northern Ireland for the last three years, and will be played from August 6th to 9th.

Current title holder Gary Player said: "It is great news to hear that the Senior British Open will continue at Royal Portrush. I have always said that it is one of the finest links courses in the world and winning there was very special for me."
