Royal Troon: Hole-by-hole animated fly-overs
Make your final preparations for The 2016 Open by checking out these videos of Royal Troon.
The 2016 Open Championship has been counting down the days to tomorrow’s first tee shot by issuing a flyover of every hole via the official Open Twitter feed. Now we are under 24 hours away from the opening tee shot, we share with you a hole-by-hole flyover of every hole at Royal Troon.
I still think real drone footage would have looked better, but possibly wouldn’t have looked as sunny.
