Welcome to the final major championship of the season!
The British Open has officially started at the prestigious Royal Troon Golf Club in Scotland. Players from around the world are competing for the iconic Claret Jug and a record-breaking $3.1 million prize.
Tiger Woods, making his first appearance since the U.S. Open, teed off alongside Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay on Thursday afternoon. After a long journey to Scotland, Woods is determined to make his mark at Royal Troon, where he last competed in 2004.
Rory McIlroy, still seeking his first major win since 2014, is looking to bounce back from a tough finish at Pinehurst No. 2. Despite a recent fourth-place finish at the Genesis Scottish Open, McIlroy is hungry for victory.
Scottie Scheffler, the dominant force on the PGA Tour this season, is a top contender for the title. Paired with Jordan Spieth and Cameron Young, Scheffler is expected to put on a stellar performance.
