A scrambling par save on No. 3 was the only reason she didn’t trail Huai-Chien Hsu, her Texas teammate, by three. But O’Keefe wasn’t panicking.

After posting an 8-over 79 on Thursday, things didn’t get much better for Tiger Woods at the 2024 British Open on Day 2. The 15-time major champion began his day with a par on No. 1, but made a sloppy double-bogey six on the par-4 second and was quickly over par.
