| British Open Golf 2009 Turnberry
11-20 July 2009
The British Open, or more correctly – the Open Championship
– returns to the fabled links of the Ailsa Course at the
Westin Turnberry Resort July 16 - 19, 2009. This Open venue, which
is on the edge of the River Clyde with a most recognizable vista
to the Ailsa Craig and in the shadows of the venerable Turnberry
Hotel, will doubtless host yet another memorable championship.
 This
was the stage in 1977 for arguably the greatest 36 hole drama
between two contestants in major championship golf. It was a two
man showdown over the weekend between Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson
whose famous “duel in the sun” was settled by a single
shot: Watson 65-65; Nicklaus 65-66!
Turnberry is unique among the Open rota for the broad selection
of superb links found nearby. We believe we have created
an enviable selection of programs which feature these various
options making the 2009 Open an ideal occasion to enjoy a pilgrimage
to Scotland.
 Once
again we are offering the British
Open by Sea golf cruise, this voyage aboard the 105 passenger M/S
Andrea. Our eight night cruise begins in Edinburgh, sails
counter clockwise along the Scottish shoreline for five rounds
of links golf and daily touring before concluding with attendance
to Sunday’s final round at Turnberry. If you prefer
to stay ashore, and would like to experience a major championship
from the inside out, we are delighted to offer “Turnberry,
Links Golf & the 138th Open” including seven
nights accommodation at the hotel, five rounds plus attendance
throughout Open week at your leisure. Availability is exceptionally
limited, so an excellent alternative is Marine
Hotel, Links Golf & the 138th Open, only 30 minutes north
including play at Royal Troon and Prestwick, the original Open
host, plus weeklong attendance. Those who wish to combine
the Open with a visit to St Andrews will find the best of the
east in either Turnberry,
St Andrews, Carnoustie & the 138th Open, or St.
Andrews, Carnoustie & the 138th Open.
Finally, and again with very limited availability, we are pleased
to offer Ailsa After the Open providing access
to the course on Tuesday the day it officially reopens after the
final putt is holed in the Open. It’s a unique
opportunity to try your hand at a major championship set up.
Except the British Open by Sea, any of the programs can all be
customized to your preferences including the exclusive comfort
and convenience of a PerryGolf VIP
Golf Coach.
Please note, as with all of our programs, if you deposit by 31
August 2008 you will be eligible to receive 2009
Early Booking Rewards. For the best availability, and
as always guaranteed US Dollar pricing, we encourage you to plan
your 2009 Open trip at your very earliest convenience.
As always, we welcome your call at 800 344 5257
or email to Information@PerryGolf.com
where one of our Golf Travel Specialists will gladly create a
customized proposal specifically for your needs.
