Nick Faldo will compete in his 33rd Open and 96th major championship at Turnberry in July.
The 51-year-old six-time major champion missed last year’s Open for the first time since 1975 as he was focused on the Ryder Cup captaincy.He also turned down a Masters return in April because of television commentary commitments, but will be competing at Turnberry for the fourth time.
Faldo won the last of his three Opens at Muirfield in 1992.
The former world number one, who no longer competes regularly on tour, also won at Muirfield in 1987 and triumphed at St Andrews in 1990.
