Royal Portrush Golf Club is expected to be confirmed on Tuesday as the venue for the 2019 Open Championship.
The organisers of the event, the Royal & Ancient, are expected to be joined by Northern Ireland's 2011 Open champion Darren Clarke for the announcement.
It was revealed in June 2014 that one of the world's greatest tournaments would be returning to the Portrush course for the first time since 1951.

The Open will be the biggest sporting event ever held in Northern Ireland.
Representatives of the R&A will be at the course on Tuesday morning to formally confirm the details of the event, which is being supported by the Northern Ireland Executive.


Calls for the Open to return to Northern Ireland reached a crescendo after Rory McIlroy, Graeme McDowell and Clarke all won major tournaments in recent years.
The successful staging of the Irish Open at Royal Portrush in 2012 further strengthened the case for a return to the world-renowned seaside links.

The hosting of the event in 2019 depended on changes to the infrastructure being approved by club members and completed in good time for the championship.
As the event operates on a rota basis, it means Royal Portrush will also get future tournaments after it initially hosts it in four years' time.
Peter Dawson, who stepped down as secretary of the R&A in September, last year described Royal Portrush as "one of the world's truly great links courses", one with a "rich golfing heritage".
