British Open adopts zero‑tolerance policy for player harassment

During the US Open, Wyndham Clark faced repeated harassment from spectators, leading to police removal of some fans. This incident prompted the R&A to implement stricter spectator regulations for the British Open.

At the upcoming tournament in Royal Birkdale, the organization issued a 'Commitment to the Open' document aimed at safeguarding player safety. The new policy seeks to prevent any spectator interference on the course.
