Round One of The Open Championship saw a wide variety of scores. Shane Lowry carded a masterful 5-under 66 in brutal conditions. Justin Thomas shot 3-under, but plenty of others shot in the high 70s. The afternoon wave had much better weather than the morning groups. However, American golf fans...

Eye-opening carnage at The Open leaves players struggling, fans drooling during 1st round

Royal Troon provided the most difficult opening round at The Open Championship since the 2013 of the tournament, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that a man like Shane Lowry sits near the top of the leaderboard after 18 holes of play. Carding a bogey-free 66, the 2019 champion clipped the course scoring average at Royal Troon by more than eight strokes and positioned himself one shot behind shocking leader Daniel Brown (-6). Both stand in front of notable names like Justin Thomas, Xander Schauffele, Brooks Koepka and Scottie Scheffler.

For a few moments, it looked as if Tiger Woods was going to have himself a great week at the 152nd Open Championship. Then the reality of 48-year-old Tiger Woods at major championships set in. After getting it to 1 under early in the day, Woods could only manage to post a 79 in his first Open appearance since the 2022 edition at St. Andrews.

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.

Good Wednesday morning TSFers, and happy Hump Day! The heat continues in D.C. with temperatures pushing towards 100 degrees once again. Yesterday’s recorded high of 104 is the hottest it’s been in the city since 1988, and the three consecutive days of 101+ was the first time D.C. has seen that since the Dust Bowl in 1930. I give it 0 out of 10 stars.
