SNP President
and local MEP Ian Hudghton has welcomed the return of The Open to
Carnoustie.
Commenting
after a day at the venue, Mr Hudghton said;
"This event
is a worldwide showcase for all that Angus and Scotland can offer to
visitors. The immediate economic boost to the area from visitor's spending
this week is welcome. The longer term benefits too will be significant
arising from the massive worldwide publicity. Having been instrumental, as
a former Leader of Angus Council, in the delivery of the Golf Course Hotel
project, it is especially pleasing to see Carnoustie regain its rightful
place as a classic venue for The Open" |
