Private lives, public placesIn that story, everybody had a good time. “I was once woken up at 6 a.m. on Easter Sunday by French teenagers taking pictures outside,” Johnston says. When private homes – and the people who live in them – become tourist attractions, clashes can occur.

Brooke Henderson, who has won 20 times since turning professional in 2014, rolled in a putt on the final hole of last year’s Amundi Evian Championship to win the women’s major by one shot over the rookie Sophia Schubert. It was Henderson’s seventh time playing the championship, which starts on Thursday and is the only major played in continental Europe. It is also the only women’s major played on the same course every year, the Evian Resort Golf Club in France, which has hosted the tournament for nearly 30 years. It’s been called quirky and unfair, and one player, Stacy Lewis, who is a major champion, skipped it for two years. It also stands in contrast to courses for the other majors, which have moved to be hosted at the same venues where the men have won.
