The Open Championship gets underway next month.

Players who have joined the LIV Golf Series will be allowed play at next month's Open Championship.

The R-and-A has confirmed that all those who have already qualified, or have exemptions, will be able to tee it up at St Andrews.

This is in contrast to the approach of the PGA Tour, who have banned those involved in the Saudi-backed breakaway tour.

But the USGA - the organisers of last week's US Open - also allowed LIV players take part.
