The prestigious tournament, which is often referred to incorrectly as 'the 'British Open', was established in 1860, making it the world's oldest golf tournament.'

In fact, they reveal that Jonah Hill, the film's director, couldn't believe they were first in first place. Hill had a rough start with Christopher Mintz-Plasse, aka McLovin, both on and off camera, thanks to some judicious flyers and one tumultuous audition. "The hunt for McLovin was the first time we really started to get into a 'Twilight Zone' hole of madness." According to Vanity Fair, it became abundantly apparent that there were no actors who were right for the role. Thanks to some notices left by the casting director at high schools around Southern California, the producers didn't know they had a chance until Mintz-Plasse turned up.
