The Open Championship, formerly The British Open, happens every year in July and currently ten golf courses spread through Scotland are host venues rotated each year since the first tournament was played in 1860. According to a recent announcement from The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A), one golf course may be dropped from the rotation. The gold course that may be dropped is Turnberry Golf Club, which is owned by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. According to The Independent on Sunday, the R&A has privately discussed that the Trump-owned course may be out of contention of hosting the pretigious golf tournament due to controversial remarks made by Trump regarding "Muslims, Mexicans, Chinese and women, among others." After the R&A learned of the comments in June of Trump calling Mexicans "rapists" and the oncoming racial discrimination points put forward, an unnamed R&A member said, "Those who forecast worse would come, including warnings from our American cousins, have been proved correct." Martin Slumbers, the new chief executive of the R&A, was expected to endorse Turnberry to be host of the tournament in 2020. Trump bought the golf club last year in hopes of being on the 18th green for the final round of the tournament and handing out to the champion of that year with R&A members standing beside Trump. Members have said Turnberry may not be ruled out fully but as long as Trump is owner, the course will never be considered host. "2020 will not happen here," an R&A insider. said. "Turnberry will be back. But perhaps not Trump Turnberry."
