HOYLAKE, England (AP) — Matthew Jordan has been given the honor of hitting the first tee shot at the 151st British Open and he’ll know exactly where to put it. The 27-year-old Jordan lives in Hoylake and is a member at Royal Liverpool. He has been approached by a number of players about the optimal way to get around the course and he says he hasn’t been giving much away. Jordan recalls coming to watch the British Opens at Hoylake in 2006 and ’14 as a wide-eyed spectator and freezing when Tiger Woods walked past him.
