Who would you like to see host the British Masters in 2021?

[MarkT]

You might think with all his work away from the course, 600+ starts on the European Tour, Open Championship win, two Ryder Cup appearances and general and genuine affection from his peers that Paul Lawrie might have done more than enough to host one of these. He's playing his last European Tour event this week in Scotland so who would make a good host for next year and help to get some of the big names back?
And while we're here what would be a great course to see back on the tour?

Host? Eddie Pepperal, course? One with a decent bar attached.

Don't understand why a tournament needs a 'host'?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Would be a nice touch from the ET to make Lawrie a host next year. Not sure they've selected a course or host so somewhere in Scotland with Lawrie would be ideal

 

[SammmeBee]

Money is the only thing that attracts the ‘names’.......

 

[IanM]

I've never paid any real attention to who the host is. Not sure I'm bothered

Am I missing something

Well..dont put any money on the "Host" doing any good in the tournament..they're too busy doing the media stuff and giving out chocolate to concentrate on winning..

Surely that falls perfectly for Lawrie. Host it without any issue about playing well (if at all) and being competitive

Surely he could have done it before then?!

Thongchai Jaidee at St Mellion

They should do something novel like pick a venue then make the club champion host for the week

 

[MendieGK]

Pretty sure close house has a 5 year deal

 

[KenL]

Royal Aberdeen would be great. Really enjoyed watching the Scottish Open played there.

Works for a PL connection too.

Wasn’t there a matchplay which Aphibarndrat won?

 

[GreiginFife]

Was that the one at Archerfield?

yes a MP, was that the one at Murcar?

i'm sure he did one the following year too, but could be wrong?

 

[Deleted member 1147]

Can’t remember I’m afraid, but I certainly seem to remember him “hosting” an event.

Colin Montgomerie at Celtic Manor. In case you didn't know, there was a Ryder Cup here
Mark Roe at the Grove. Then he could spend 4 days sitting next to the plaques on the 18th (9th) fairway talking about what an amazing golfer Tiger is.
Paul Casey at Innisbrook.
Darren Clarke at anywhere with a bar.

Please god no more Monty or Roe. Clarke wouldn't actually be a bad shout. Definitely got the peer support
