The third round of the 153rd Open Championship is underway at Royal Portrush Golf Course in Northern Ireland. Scottie Scheffler came into the weekend leading the pack with a 10-under mark, with Matt Fitzpatrick one back and Brian Harman and Haotong Li two behind. So far, Rory has had a bizarre unwitting trick shot and John Parry got the event’s first ace.
