Qualification for The 152nd Open

Forty-four players booked their spots at The 152nd Open at Royal Troon through The Open Qualifying Series.

Dean Burmester, Darren Fichardt and Dan Bradbury qualified at the Joburg Open before Joaquin Niemann, Rikuya Hoshino and Adam Scott earned the three places available at the ISPS Handa Australian Open.

The first qualifying event of 2024 was the IRS Prima Malaysian Open at The Mines Resort & Golf Club in February. Jeunghun Wang, Denwit Boriboonsub and John Catlin took the three places on offer, with the latter becoming exempt at the end of May when David Puig - the tournament's winner - qualified through a different route.

Brendon Todd has also booked his place through the Qualifying Series, courtesy of a sixth-place finish at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, while Ryosuke Kinoshita, Guntaek Koh and Yuto Katsuragawa qualified at the Mizuno Open on the Japan Golf Tour.

Strong finishes by American duo Ben Griffin and Maverick McNealy at the RBC Canadian Open sealed their spots at Troon alongside Mackenzie Hughes.

Canadian Adam Hadwin punched his ticket to Troon thanks to a third-place finish at the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village in June.

Davis Thompson won the penultimate event on the Open Qualifying Series, the John Deere Classic in July, posting a tournament record low score of 256 (28-under-par). CT Pan finished T2 at TPC Deere Run alongside Michael Thorbjornsen and Luke Clanton and took the second qualifying place on offer courtesy of his higher position in the Official World Golf Ranking.

Minkyu Kim and Younghan Song made it to Troon via their performances at the Kolon Korea Open, while Guido Migliozzi and Joe Dean qualified via the KLM Open and Tom McKibbin and Scott Crocker were the qualifiers at the Italian Open.

The final three spots on the Open Qualifying Series were awarded to Aaron Rai, Alex Noren and Richard Mansell at the Genesis Scottish Open, which was a PGA TOUR and DP World Tour co-sanctioned event.

After 15 Regional Qualifying events that took place on Monday 24 June, Final Qualifying took place at four venues on Tuesday 2 July, with Justin Rose, Dominic Clemons, Abraham Ancer, Charlie Lindh, Sam Hutsby, Angel Hidalgo, Liam Nolan, Jack McDonald, Matthew Dodd-Berry, Sam Horsfield, Daniel Brown, Masahiro Kawamura, Matthew Southgate, Elvis Smylie, Jaime Montojo and Luis Masaveu taking the 16 spots available.

Where any golfer who earns a qualifying place through an Open Qualifying Series event before the closing date for entries then becomes exempt under one or more other categories, that qualifying place will be awarded to the next best placed non-exempt golfer at that qualifying event.
