Sir Nick Faldo: It’s not over, Scottie Scheffler has got away with it so far
That’s a horrible start for Justin: A bogey to move back to -1 overall for Rose.
Nick Faldo tells Sky Sports: “I’m saying no, you cannot get away with missing fairways here. The wind has picked up a touch. We have eight holes, left to right, Scottie doesn’t like that. He’s got away with it, every time I watch him. I don’t believe that can keep going on. I think you have to keep it in play. As the nerves get up, there are fall offs, the pressure will mount.”
Leaderboard: -10 Scheffler, -9 Fitzpatrick; -8: Li, Harman; -5: MacIntyre, Hojgaard R, Hatton, English

Xander Schauffele makes early move
The defending champion, at two, has an eagle putt trickle away to the right, but he’ll take birdie and soon move to -3, seven behind Scottie Scheffler.
DeChambeau continues to roll on 16: His second shot is majestic, a high bounding chip from the back right of the par three, it tumbles down, but then checks, handing him a great chance to save par and remain tied 26th at -2 overall.

A couple of difficult holes for DeChambeau saw him move to -1, but he birdies the next to get back to -2. Not quite as impressive as yesterday for the American.

Parry lands a hole in one!
We have a hole in one and John Parry has moved to -3!
He takes on the 192-yard 13th and tees off with a lovely shot that arcs perfectly for the ace!
Barely a bounce as it fell in.
The first hole-in-one of the 2025 tournament, and the 26th in the last 40 years of The Open.

A brilliant round from Corey Conners today, as he lands another birdie on 18 to finish the day with a round of 66.
He’s at -4 now, and will face an interesting wait to see how high that puts him up the leaderboard!
