British Open
  The British Open is heading for complete sold out status

There are now less than 120 tickets left for sale for the 2017 British Open Championship, which takes place at Symphony Hall in Birmingham on Saturday 9th September.

The prospect of enjoying a world class line-up competing for the famous Gold Shield on the popular set-work, 'Fraternity' by Thierry Deleruyelle has seen every area except the last couple of rows of the Grand Tier sold.
