add this to your code:

self.tableWidget.itemDoubleClicked.connect(self.OpenLink)

def OpenLink(self,item):
    if item.column() == 1:
        webbrowser.open('www.google.com')

you can change it based on your needs like that: item.text() == the text in the cell, item.row() == row number and item.column() == column number.

Thanks! I tried this method, but I had an error with the condition "item.column() == 0:" because of which the method did not work. Now I decided to try without it and everything worked. – re1ner Jan 19 '22 at 08:14
so you just removed the conditioning? (im asking so I can edit the answer :) ) – Guy Nachshon Jan 19 '22 at 08:17

By default, double-click cell editing was enabled. I disabled editing and added your condition. And it worked. Your answer is fine, you don't need to change it – re1ner Jan 19 '22 at 08:41
