For Rory McIlroy, this Open was always going to be a complex week. I wrote about his final holes and how, even in defeat, he found something important on this trip home: golf.com/news/rory-mcil…
Want to understand Scottie Scheffler? Go back to the 2020 Masters and the time Tiger Woods made 10. Scheffler was Woods' playing partner that day — and he was taking notes. I wrote about Scottie and Portrush and how he's made Tiger's superpower his own: golf.com/news/scottie-s…
Remarkable bounceback from Bryson. Looked lost and destined for an MC after the first round — now he might finish top 5. 78-65-68-64 is impressive stuff. (and Scottie still might beat him by 10)
Haotong Li, solo second, on playing with Scottie Scheffler tomorrow: "I'm actually quite looking forward to it. Four shots behind, kind of playing for second, especially playing with world No. 1. I'll just try to play my best out there and hopefully make something happen."
This is cool: Justin Leonard just posted 70-73 (+1) at the Open. He’s now in line to make his first major cut since the 2014 US Open — and should improve on his current world ranking of No. 4659

Round 1 is complete and the leaderboard is crowded. @dylan_dethier recaps the day with five interesting things from #TheOpenChampionship.
