Reports have claimed that the R&A have offered cash to prevent them changing tee timesIRON IT OUT The Open warning over major disruption to tee times which would cause live TV chaosTEE times at The Open next week could be disrupted amid concerns about a planned loyalist parade in Portrush. Event organisers, The R&A, are considering a plan to start the third round of the major early to try and minimise the disruption. If tee times aren't moved it is likely that the parade would clash with thousands of golf fans leaving the sold-out course. Reports have claimed that the R&A asked Portrush Sons of Ulster, the parade's organisers, to consider rearranging their event. The event is anticipated to be the biggest sporting event to take place in Northern Ireland.
