Medalist vs. Scorers: Which tickets are still available?

This Open Championship has divided its hospitality range into six distinct groups. Yes, you heard it right. Their popularity can be easily perceived by the sold-out tag. Caddies, Origin Suites, Engravers, and Champions are no longer available. But you can still get your hands on the most premium experiences.

Starting at $1800 excluding VAT, the Medalist tickets promise you 3-days worth of premium hospitality, from Thursday, July 18th, to July 20th. It includes general admission in the first three rounds of the event, as well as a fully inclusive food and beverage service across multiple restaurants. That’s not all, from a private terrace with seating, you will also enjoy a reserved 18th green grandstand seat.

Moreover, the official site also promises, “Player Q&A with past or present players.” The ticket holders will also have access to a reserved area in the Postage Stamp grandstand. Outside of it, they can enjoy full TV coverage of the event as well as a dining experience ranging from warm pastries to an array of alcoholic beverages, including wines, beer, champagne, spirits, and soft drinks.

The Scorers ticket has two options within itself: the Scorers and the Scorers Premium. Scorers tickets start retailing for $300 excluding VAT, the consumer can enjoy overlooking the lower level of the Origins Hospitality Pavilion on the 15th hole. Along with a free parking pass per four people, the ticket holder will get waitresses tending to them with a beverage service. You will also have a whole dessert station to enjoy. The Scorers ticket also comes with a private garden area with LED screens for full coverage of the event. You will also get private restroom facilities. There is only one downside to this ticket, and that is that it’s available only for Wednesday. Every other day is already sold out.

Additionally, with all the same facilities as those in the Scorers, if you wish to get a table for 10 people, you can choose the Scorers Premium, which starts at $650 without VAT. Again, the only available day for this premium upgrade is Sunday, July 21st.

So, if you are sad about tickets being sold out, worry not. Tickets for The Open are available for resale too if someone decides to sell their unwanted tickets. But the catch is that it can only be done on the official platform of the major, and fan-to-fan reselling is not applicable. Well, the only reason why most of the tickets are already sold out is because of their extravagant perks. That’s right. Below is a summary of what you can expect if you are on the waiting list.

Why are most of the tickets already sold out?

“With its informal style and relaxed atmosphere, Caddies is the perfect base for your day at The Open, whilst still offering a host of premium benefits,”  stated the official site for Caddies Ticket. This ticket option provides one with the admission ticket to The 152nd Open with fast track entrance as well as a private lower level balcony. A lounge buffet and a fully complimentary bar will be the added benefits.

Along with all the facilities with the Caddies ticket, for the Origin Suites, you may expect one additional perk. With this ticket, you will get a private space on-site that is customized to suit your brand and style. Moreover, you will also be given a Scottish breakfast and a four-course fine lunch experience.

The Engravers ticket steps up a level more with access to the upper balcony overlooking the 15th hole. However, if you wish, you can purchase reserved seating at the 18th hole upon availability. Furthermore, with private tables and private restrooms, the ticket lets the consumer have the experience of being a part of the Q&A session with past and present players.

The Champions, on the other hand, will provide a reserved seating area in both the 1st Tee Grandstand and the 18th Green Grandstand. They will also be allowed to play the championship on the same course on Monday after the Open. Exciting, is it not? Along with all the other facilities mentioned above, the ticket provides yet another benefit.
