Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas are all owners of two major titles. But entering the 2024 Open Championship, none of them even have a top-five finish at the British Open. Golfers that routinely dominate in the states have struggled at the links courses that the United Kingdom offers. Thomas has particularly struggled in the U.K. as six of his seven starts at this major have seen him finish 40th or worse. His British Open debut came in 2016 when he finished in 53rd place at Royal Troon, and the Scottish course will also host the Open Championship 2024 beginning on July 18.
