Live updates, points and highlights from round 1

The ranking is regularly updated with scores.

We have certainly received some big surprises to start the open championship, not least the two men who were sitting on the ranking, Jakob Skov Olesen and Haotong Li, a little less than in the middle of the campaign on Thursday. The former, a 26-year-old from Denmark, recorded it on Thursday for just his second career championship start to the major championship and brought it to Royal Portrush separated from a short-term expert. He ended the last to end 4-over. In the meantime, Li recently played a brilliant golf after showing some positive signs in his game, and continued to do so with a strong, arc -free round.

Later in the round, the Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick was his own indictment. After some unfavorable form at the beginning of the year, he has recently started coming recently. He showed more of it at Portrush, put a eagle, a birdie and a bogey together to the front nine and then played a smooth nine to connect the lead.

Then, and lo and behold, the Scottie Scheffler Guy got hot to end his last round. He brewed the accident and then followed another birdie to 17 with another bird to bring him from the lead. He got another decent birdie look on the 18th, but the hole broke to close a great round with a par, just one back.

When the late wave started, we saw some others in a fight. Tyrrell Hatton and Christiaan Bezuidenhout together with Aaron Rai stood on the first page of the ranking. Lucas Glover also started white and went through his first two holes to get into the mix. And this Rory McIlroy type, he also started to take movements. The hero of the home country began to stumble, but climbed into a groove in the hearts of his front nine to get involved in the disputes.

Open Championship Live updates and highlights

Updates are regularly carried out in the reverse chronological order.

Bryson Dechambeau has problems

In Portrush, the record of Dechameau at the British Open was definitely not glowing. And we saw some of them nine in its front on Thursday when an independent shot was reinforced by an impossible lie. Ultimately, he made double bogey on the hole.

Rory comes

To quote the good people without laying on, and the Omar Gif from “The Wire”, Rory comes. After his long birdie putt, he bored an approach in just a few feet and flirted with the Dilthrow for Eagle on the seventh par 5, but gave himself a light birdie to get directly into the mixture near the top of the ranking.

Rory McIlroy heats up on the front nine

While Rory did not hit his first discount as in 2019, he made the first. However, he pulled it back together and even sat with seats and sank a refined little putt for birdie from the green that started the home.

Lucas Glover begins with an absolute heater

How do 3 under-two sound? If you are Lucas Glover, it sounds after his open championship started, which brought him straight from the gates to the mix on the ranking.

Viktor Hovland makes an early statement

Hovland collected a lot of buzz and after a par in the first he looked quite wise when the talented Norwegian played the Par-5 second hole for perfection and sank the eagle putt.

Scottie Scheffler warms up to end round 1

Just when they thought it would be a human round from the number 1 square, he started finding his groove. Scheffler entered the last three holes at 1-unders, but then the number 16 and 17 bird to move within a setting of the lead.

Just take a look at where US Open Champ JJ Spaun had to play

JJ Spaun was only a bit off the line in the 16th hole, and Golffans left only an unreal picture when he hit his second shot and tried to get on the green in Calamity Corner.

Matt Fitzpatrick climbs on Calamity Corner to bind to lead

Fitzy played an enormous golf, but his most impressive shot came up with the brutal 16th hole, known as Calamity Corner when he came to the par-3 tea shot in the gap to a short right, but with a brilliant chip to take the lead at 4-and-gremen.

Jon Rahm is heated by Open Championship fans

Rahm had a solid start at Portrush, but his notorious temperament appeared on a tea box. A fan seemed to whistle with his driver during the back swing. When the ball shot into the Rough with a poor T shirt, he let his displeasure to be heard.

The hero of the hometown Darren Clarke delivers a moment when you can remember

The former Open Champion and Northern Ireland came to Darren Clarke (he actually met the first tea shot 2019) from the beginning of Thursday never in serious disputes. But he gave the fans of his home country something special in the 17th hole. He was buried in deep diamonds next to the green, he struck it and fell into his cup for the second birdie.

Shane Lowry really loves it.

Lowry won the Open in 2019, the last time at Royal Portrush. It seemed as if the good feeling hadn't gone anywhere when he started his round hot with a few birdies to get directly into the mix.

JS Olesen's short game pushes him into the top

After he had previously lifted a 42-foot ondler putt to drive to 4-uner, he used his chipping to put another low number on the card. He bogey the 18th to return it and fall into a tie for the lead, but Oleses was chosen for the Greens.

Phil Mickelson makes early noise

Not many people talked about Mickelson who entered the week, but he changed that with a short game magic and some really solid T-shirt-to-green games at the beginning of his round.

The last 5 winners of the Open Championship

The open was not played in 2020 due to the COVID 19 pandemic, but it was many heavy hits that have done it at the British Open in recent years. Brian Harman is obviously the outlier under this, but his dominance in Royal Liverpool is still among the most impressive great championship achievements that we have seen in recent years. He was a long shot, but in the end the elite game was still rewarded.

And it is also impossible to note that Iren Shane Lowry won the victory in his own way six years ago when the open finally returned to Portrush.
