The field
A total of 12 players – including a former Amateur Champion and a YouTube star – will be competing for the final Royal Birkdale place at the inaugural Last-Chance Qualifier.
All players competing earned their places after meeting the exemption criteria set out by The R&A in December.
Aldrich Potgieter, who claimed The Amateur Championship as a 17-year-old in 2022, and Wesley Bryan, one half of the popular Bryan Bros YouTube channel, are among those teeing it up on Monday morning.
The full field is as follows: Aldrich Potgieter, Matti Schmid, Matt Moloney (a), Joe Dean, Sam Easterbrook (a), Adri Arnaus, John Gough, Angel Hidalgo, Charles Huntzinger, Andrew Wilson, Wesley Bryan, Frazer Jones (a).
