Wider selection of leading brands and collections than ever before

As The Open Shop continues to develop and expand, leading brands from across the world will be showcased, including Official Outfitter and Patron Hugo Boss, leading sportswear brand Adidas, and introducing a lifestyle collection from Peter Millar.

Speaking ahead of the launch, Head of Retail, Merchandise and Licensing, Jenny Brown said: “Our vision for retail has always been to develop an innovative “must-go-to” experience, which engages and inspires a global audience all year round. With the expertise of SHIFT Commerce, combined with our multi-brand and collection product strategy we now believe we have an e-commerce platform fit for the future, which prioritises our customer journey.

“There are many exciting aspects to this site, including the fact that it is much more responsive and content-enhanced than ever before, allowing us to tell the story of The Open across our merchandise range.

“We are also looking to implement single sign-on in the months to come, allowing fans of The Open to have a one-stop shop for their tickets, hospitality and merchandise purchases. We hope all of our partners and fans enjoy the new e-commerce experience.”

The Open brand continues to inspire and tell the story of golf’s original championship

The Open’s rich history, dating back to 1860, is full of inspiring moments. In addition to providing a first-class retail experience, The Open Shop will provide supporting content linked to the stories, icons and memories that make the Championship so special, offering fans a new way to interact with golf’s original major.

To celebrate the launch of the new Open Shop, a site-wide offer of 10% off on all products will be available for a limited time only. As well as a 10% off offer for any customer at the new Open online shop, customers who make their purchase with a Mastercard anytime throughout the month of July will be automatically entered into a competition and will be in with a chance of winning a once-in-a-lifetime experience at The 149th Open next year.
