    About the R&A

    Based in St Andrews, The R&A is golf’s governing body and organizer of The Open Championship.  The R&A is committed to working for golf and operates with the consent of 136 organizations from the amateur and professional game and on behalf of over thirty million golfers in 123 countries.

    The R&A takes its name from The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, which has continuous records dating back to its foundation in 1754, and although the Club continues its long history with 2,400 members throughout the world, The R&A has become a separate entity to focus on its governance role.
