NO MOBILE PHONES AT THE OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP
Spectators who are planning to attend The Open Championship, to be played at Carnoustie from Sunday 15 to Sunday 22 July 2007, are being advised that they will not be permitted to have mobile phones in their possession within The Open site. This policy is in line with other major golf championships, including last year's Ryder Cup at the K Club, and follows comments from players concerning the excessive numbers in evidence last year at Hoylake.
