The Open Championship 2022 from the famed Old Course at St. Andrews is slated to get going on Thursday. It’s the last major of the PGA season and should bring a ton of interest around the sports world.
As one of the most historical tournaments in golf history, winning the Claret Jug is one of the primary resume-builders around the PGA world.
As of right now, Rory McIlroy has the top odds to win The Open Championship. He’s followed in line by Xander Schauffele, Jon Rahm and 2022 Masters winner Scottie Scheffler.
Below, we preview the annual Major with information on the television schedule and when the world’s top golfers will tee off at the Old Course at St. Andrews.
What is The Open Championship?
- It is one of four Major men’s championships on the annual PGA slate.
- The first Open Championship was held at Prestwick Golf Club in Ayrshire, Scotland, all the way back in 1860. Willie Park Sr. won the initial event with Old Tom Morris winning three of the next four.
- Tom Watson holds the modern record with five The Open Championship titles to his resume. The pre-modern era saw Harry Vardon win six titles.
- The 2022 event represents the first time that the Open Championship has been held at the famed St. Andrews since back in 2015 when Zach Johnson came away with the win.
What channel is the Open Championship on?

Will Tiger Woods tee of in the 2022 Open Championship?
Woods will tee off with 2022 US Open winner Matt Fitzpatrick and Max Homa in the first two rounds of the Open Championship.
This will represent his third major of the season after coming back following a horrible automobile accident back in February of 2021. He withdrew from the PGA Championship in the third round and had to skip the US Open after struggling at the 2022 Masters.
He won at St. Andrews back in 2000 and 2005. Woods is a three-time winner of the annual major across the pond.
