TROON, Scotland — Royal Troon has some unique aspects but maybe most curious is the private house that sits in the middle of the championship course and has views of five holes for the British Open starting Thursday. It's known as "Blackrock House" and is located between the greens of holes No. 2 and No. 16. It's also close to the tees of No. 18 and two others. Originally built as one house, it was converted in the early 1970s into two dwellings. The Kelly family has owned the north side of the house since 1990 and has now put it up for sale. The asking price is just under $2 million.
