Former Florida golf standout Billy Horschel took the lead at the 152nd British Open at Royal Troon after three rounds thanks to a 2-under 69 effort. Playing through some brutal Scottish rain, the Gators alumnus put on a short-game clinic on the back-9 to take the solo lead at the 54-hole mark.
However, on the last day of play Sunday, Horschel could not maintain the edge, birdieing his last three holes to tie England’s Justin Rose for second place at 7-under in the final standings. Xander Schauffele surged into the lead with a sizzling stretch of four birdies in six holes and held on to win by two strokes.
