TROON, Scotland — A month ago, they dueled to the 72nd and final hole of the U.S. Open at Pinehurst.

In Thursday’s British Open first round, Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy were in survival mode all day and both are in jeopardy of missing the cut at Royal Troon.

McIlroy’s 38th attempt at winning a first major championship in 10 years was dealt a damning blow. 



McIlroy, who last won a major in 2014, shot a 7-over 77 and trails first-round leader Daniel Brown by 13 strokes, finished the day tied for 129th place among the 158 players in the field.

DeChambeau, who...

TROON, Scotland (AP) — So much for the British Open being one last stand for Rory McIlroy in the majors this year. His best hope now is getting beyond one more day. And he has company from U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau. The protagonists from Pinehurst No. 2 were...

McIlroy, DeChambeau stumble badly out of the gates at British Open

The British Open holds a special place in Rory McIlroy's heart. The native of Northern Ireland got his start on the European Tour before making it to the PGA Tour, where he holds four majors wins on his resume and three FedEx Cup championships. He has represented Europe on the international stage in the past, so it's understandable why the national open held in his neck of the woods means a little bit more.

It's becoming a tradition unlike any other. Golf Twitter roasting a top golfer's haircut during a major. Scottie Scheffler got the brutal treatment last month when he got a fresh cut at Pinehurst on the eve of the U.S. Open that showed off his golfer's tan. Before that, who could forget Jordan Spieth at the 2018 British Open and Rickie Fowler at the 2016 Olympics.

Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau implode at The Open; far cry from U.S. Open duel

Open Championship golf forces players to embrace their inner artistry. Every tee shot, every approach and every chip shot presents the player with a multitude of options of how to play the shot. Unlike most weeks on the PGA Tour, no two players will play any shot identically. Players spend hours and hours becoming almost robotic — trying to make their swings, putting strokes, and everything in between as perfectly repeatable as possible, only to arrive in Scotland this week forced to abandon the robotic in favor of the artistic. Flighted draws into left to right winds, sky-high tee shots down wind, and pitch shots that bound forwards perfectly only to check up right next to the hole are just some of the wonderful examples that we’ll see. Of course, we’ll also get our fair share of attempted artistry that results in dads across the country saying, “Well I could have done that!”

2024 British Open: Live projected cut line as Tiger, DeChambeau and more battle

Bryson DeChambeau said earlier this week that the back nine at Royal Troon had some teeth. The front nine seemed to take that personally. DeChambeau, who just a few weeks ago won the U.S. Open at Pinehurst, put himself well off the pace Thursday morning at The Open by going out in 6-over 42 with four bogeys, a double bogey and no birdies. He hit just three of Royal Troon’s greens and four fairways, battling a two-way miss in a wind that was the complete opposite of the forecast, coming in and off the right for the usually easier starting stretch.

Another major week is upon us and that means Golf Channel crash-test dummy Johnson Wagner is zipping up the fire suit, taking out a second life insurance policy and getting ready to step into the breach once again. But this time, Wagner didn’t even get a chance to dip his toe in the water before being tossed in the deep end of Royal Troon’s infamous coffin bunker. The results, as you’ve probably already guessed, were as disastrous as they were hilarious.

Daniel Brown had a major championship debut he won't soon forget. He birdied two of the last three holes Thursday in the British Open, giving him a 6-under 65 with just enough spectators still left in the twilight of Royal Troon to celebrate with him.It gave him a one-shot lead over Shane Lowry, who played bogey-free for a 66 and his best start in 46 majors.Lowry at least knew what to expect with an opposite wind that seemed to catch just about everyone off guard. He came to Troon two weeks ago and knew what to expect, and it paid...
