The 151st Open Championship has started at the Royal Liverpool Golf Club. Just like last year, the attendance of fans at the venue seems immense. According to the Open official website, last year, the tournament recorded the highest attendance of fans which was 290,000 at St Andrew's from July 10 to 17, 2022, in its long history.A Twitter account named PGA TUOR reportedly claimed that the spectator counts in the last practice round was 84,328, whereas the LIV Golf's most attended event had 23,482 fans count.Here is the tweet for the reference:PGA TUOR@PGATUORToday’s practice round at The Open had 84,328 fans.LIV’s most attended event of the year had 23,482 fans. pic.twitter.com/aFmf18ZNyJ224389Today’s practice round at The Open had 84,328 fans.LIV’s most attended event of the year had 23,482 fans. pic.twitter.com/aFmf18ZNyJHowever, certain no official numbers of attendance in the practice round of The 151st Open Championship are present on the internet. Also, some reports claim that LIV Golf's most attended event, the Washington DC event, reportedly had over 40,000 fan attendance. Therefore, we do not give assurance about any such claim.So, the big question that complies is can the 151st edition of the world's oldest golf major pull out the largest crowd attendance? The answer to this question will just be a probability of 50-50.According to an article by Sports Illustrated, The 151st Open Championship is projected to surpass the previous record in England. As the venue, Royal Liverpool Golf Club has increased its size slightly from 7,312 to 7,383.
