"The Open is golf's original championship and since it was first played in 1860, openness has been fundamental to its ethos and unique appeal," The R&A's chief executive Martin Slumbers said Wednesday, via Sky Sports.

"Players who are exempt or have earned a place through qualifying for The 150th Open in accordance with the entry terms and conditions will be able to compete in the Championship at St Andrews. We are focused on staging a world-class championship in July and celebrating this truly historic occasion for golf.

"We will invest the proceeds of The Open, as we always do, for the benefit of golf which reflects our purpose to ensure that the sport is thriving 50 years from now."

The USGA allowed those players to compete in the U.S. Open last weekend. Matt Fitzpatrick won the event.

On Tuesday, PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan met with players to discuss changes to the tour schedule that will include "eight limited-field no-cut events, with purses of $20 million or more each, for the top 50 finishers in the prior season’s FedEx Cup standings," Gold Digest reported, citing several players present at the meeting.

Sources told ESPN that while nothing official has been put into place, the changes are expected to be approved for the 2023 season

The increase in prize earnings will impact several existing tournaments and will be paid for by sponsors or the tour’s reserves, according to ESPN.
