LIVERPOOL, England (AP) 鈥� Justin Rose might have found an interesting spot to prep for the British Open: Inside a Premier League stadium.
Everton is opening up its waterfront home at Bramley-Moore Dock for Upper Deck Golf, which will see tee boxes placed high in the stands and custom greens laid out on the field below.
The club said it will mark the first time such an experience will be hosted at a stadium outside North America and will take place from July 16-19 鈥� the same days as the Open Championship is held in nearby Royal Birkdale. Play at the Open will be shown on screens inside the stadium.
Writing on X, the No. 4-ranked he was 鈥渋n the area that week鈥� because he will be playing the Open and challenged fellow Englishman Tommy Fleetwood for a match before the world鈥檚 oldest major starts.
鈥淪ure Everton can sort us out a tee time,鈥� Rose wrote.
The club replied: 鈥淵ou are both very welcome.鈥�
The event will be taking place during Everton’s offseason and manager David Moyes appeared to be unaware of it when asked about it on Friday ahead of his weekly pre-match news conference.
鈥淭aking big divots out of the pitch, eh?鈥� Moyes said.
