The sport of golf is not limited to watching Pro golfers make headlines with their jaw-dropping performances on the links. There are several celebrities from other sporting spheres, entertainment, and even the business domain, who love to play a round or two for pleasure. But sometimes, it’s not just fun and games.

With the prestigious Open Championship on the horizon, Royal Liverpool has a stunning event planned for golf fans. Twelve renowned celebs with a passion for the royal sport, will face off against each other in teams to get the full pro-golfer experience.

Which celebs will partake in the Open Invitational?

Many enthusiastic actors, musicians, businessfolk, and sportspeople, both active and retired, have expressed an innate drive for golf. The Open shared an introductory post on their Instagram.

One of the shining stars this year is actress Kathryn Newton. The Ant-Man fame partook in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship Pro-Am Tournament last year alongside English pro golfer Matt Wallace. She admitted that if she wasn’t an actress, she would have pursued golf. But that the sport is much harder than her current career path. Still, she loves to play golf and has reportedly scored a consistent 70 for a while, and even reached 69 once. She is thrilled to be part of the Open Invitational to once again test herself in a professional golfing environment.
