Government says Open hosting decisions up to R&A

The UK government says it is up to the R&A to decide the hosts of the Open Championship following claims US president Donald Trump has made repeated requests for the 2028 event to be held at his Turnberry course.
President Trump and White House officials have reportedly spoken to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer about the Open returning to the Ayrshire venue, which last hosted the event in 2009.
