What you need to know about the 153rd Open championship
What time does The Open start? Around 270,000 golf fans are expected during the eight days of practice and competitive play for the 153rd Open championship at Royal Portrush. The first official practice day is on Sunday 13 July with the four-day championship beginning on Thursday 17 July. Advertisement On the practice days, there will be golf throughout the day with gates opening at 09:00 BST on Sunday then at 07:00 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. When the championship starts, the timings are as follows: Thursday and Friday – gates open 06:00 Saturday and Sunday – gates open 07:00 It is six years since The Open was last held in Northern Ireland [Reuters] What can I bring to The Open 2025? Organisers of the tournament, the R&A, have strict rules around what fans can bring to the course. Mobile phones are allowed but they must be kept on silent. People can bring rucksacks and their own food. However, spectators are not allowed to bring their own alcohol. Also banned from the course are: selfie sticks portable speakers flares fireworks pets Guide dogs are permitted, as are pushchairs and buggies. Although it can be difficult to find a clear view of the golf within a large crowd, ladders and periscopes are not allowed on the course. Advertisement Wi-fi will be available in the grandstands and at the spectator village which contains the catering and retail outlets. Can you leave the course and get back in? A re-admission policy will be in place which means spectators can leave, go into Portrush town centre and then return to the golf. However, they must collect a wristband before leaving the course to ensure re-entry. Sarah Simpson is Translink's northern area manager [BBC] How to get to The Open 2025 There will be no public car-parking beside Royal Portrush, with park and ride facilities operating instead. Charges will apply at the park and ride, with a fee of £17 during the four championship days Thursday to Sunday (17-20 July). Advertisement Organisers have urged fans to use public transport, but an industrial dispute at Translink could lead to trains not running on two days during The Open. The Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) has earmarked Friday 18 and Saturday 19 July for strike action involving some of its members. If the industrial action goes ahead, it would involve widespread disruption to rail services on those days, not just in Portrush. Translink say they are doing everything they can to avert the strike. Extra bus and train services to Portrush are planned from 14 July, with fans urged to arrive 30 minutes before departure time as services are likely to be busy. Advertisement Sarah Simpson, Translink's northern area manager, said: "There will be enhanced train capacity and frequency, including additional services to Portrush and late evening return services. "Special bus and coach services are also available in addition to normal Goldliner services. "I would encourage anyone heading to The Open to visit our website for travel options." What's changed since the last Open in Portrush? It is six years since The Open was last in Northern Ireland, in 2019. Since then the new transport hub Grand Central Station has opened in Belfast. There is now a more frequent train service to and from Dublin which will make it easier for golf fans from the Republic of Ireland to travel to Portrush. Advertisement There are more hotel rooms available in Belfast, Londonderry and near Portrush with the expansion of some hotels and the development of some new ones. Most accommodation was snapped up quickly with only limited availability left. Janice Gault from the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation [BBC] What will be the economic impact of The Open? The economic dividend from The Open will be much greater this year - according to Janice Gault, chief executive of the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation. She said: "The last time it was reckoned there was £100m of economic benefit, this time it's likely to double to over £213m as a projected figure for all aspects of the economy – tourism, retail, hospitality, there's something in it for everyone." Advertisement Speaking of money, The Open site is cash-less. The bars, shops and food outlets are all card only. A washing machine has been set up at Grand Central Station for fans to hit balls into [BBC] How widespread is Rory McIlroy fever? The recent victory by Rory McIlroy at the Masters means there will be even more focus than usual on the fans' favourite golfer. He first caught the public eye in Northern Ireland as a child when he appeared on an Ulster Television chat show chipping golf balls into a washing machine. In support of the local golfing hero, a washing machine is being set up at Grand Central Station for fans to hit balls into. Or, perhaps, for fans to try to hit balls into. More on this story

Review: \
Peek behind the curtains of the Fighting Irish football program Those Notre Dame fans who need something to watch before training camp starts might want to tune into the "Here Come The Irish", a documentary about the 2024 Notre Dame football season that is streamable on Peacock. Fighting Irish fans who feel the need to get fired up for the 2025 season will enjoy this look back on the Irish's 2024 campaign, from the uncertain optimism of training camp to the gut punch that was the loss to Ohio State in the national championship game. Head coach Marcus Freeman is the most prominent figure, getting plenty of interview time, and the camera follows him to various off-field functions, especially in the first episode. Several players get to do interviews, with former quarterback Riley Leonard and former linebacker Jack Kiser -- both now in the NFL -- getting the most airtime. Kiser's family life even gets featured in one episode. We see a lot of the Irish off the field, including a memorable trip to New York City, but the focus tends to be on the field. The practice field, that is. Much of the series centers around team meetings before practice, with Freeman speaking to the whole team, though we also see meetings with Freeman and his captains, as well as position-group meetings. Most of the B-roll is shot at practice on campus. The doc is, for better or for worse, a bit of Notre Dame propaganda. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but some things are ignored or glossed over. For example, alum Manti Te'o comes to speak to the team, and there is no mention of the fake-girlfriend scandal that surrounded his time on campus. While the doc may be clearly pro-Irish, it doesn't shy away from adversity such as the loss to Northern Illinois, injuries to key players like Benjamin Morrison, family tragedies, or the season-ending letdown. Freeman, Leonard, and Kiser are honest and transparent with their answers, though no one says anything too different from what they told the media in season. Nothing uttered by any player or coach will make news. Still, there are interesting peeks behind the curtain, such as Freeman's halftime and post-game speeches during the NIU loss. Freeman comes across the same way he does when doing a press conference or an on-field interview -- honest without being needlessly transparent. He sees what we're seeing when it comes to on-field play. He appears to be a good motivator -- his message is consistent, yet players don't seem to tire of it. Leonard, meanwhile, comes across as a happy-go-lucky goofball who nonetheless understands his role as a team leader and quarterback at one of the nation's most-watched programs. Kiser is clearly a team leader, as well -- he's more serious than Leonard but still able to crack a smile or a joke. Other players show a mixture of personality -- at times, it's clear these guys are still just college kids figuring things out. Other times, you see their off-field academic or career interests, and how they seem ready for the adult world, should they not make the NFL. And other times, it's pure football. There are eight episodes, ranging from about 30 to 45 minutes in length. The first episode features Freeman heavily, and sets up the season -- and there's an appearance from legendary head coach Lou Holtz. Episode two focuses on captain choice, the third episode centers around the highs of winning at Texas A&M and losing to NIU at home, the fourth episode deals with the aftermath of the NIU loss and the fifth episode centers around the rash of key injuries that hit Notre Dame. The sixth and seventh episodes center around the late-season playoff push and the playoff game against Indiana. The finale focuses on the playoff run and that disheartening ending. "Here Come the Irish" is the type of sports documentary that will get die-hard fans pumped up, and casual and new fans will learn things about the program. Even long-time fans like this author learned a few things, mostly concerning phrases and chants the team uses at practice. The peek behind the curtain is always nice, though outside of some locker-room speeches, little is learned that fans didn't already know. It would be nice if the show didn't shy away from darker chapters in Notre Dame history, and if there was any behind-the-scenes drama that didn't get reported on by the media, well, we don't really see it here. That said, the show doesn't gloss over the failure against NIU. If you come for X and O breakdowns, team infighting, intersquad drama, or an unvarnished look at Notre Dame, you'll be disappointed. If you want to learn a bit about the players and coaches, even if what you see is sanitized, you'll be happy. If you want to see what Freeman says in halftime and post-game speeches, you'll be satisfied. And if you want to get pumped for the season, well, then this is for you.
