Action continues this Friday at the Royal Birkdale Golf Club in Southport, England, for the 2026 Open Championship.
Jackson Suber currently leads the field at 5 under par, maintaining a slim one-shot advantage over Daniel Brown and Sungjae Im. However, the battle for the lead remains tight as Bryson DeChambeau (3 under) and Scottie Scheffler (2 under) remain well within contention. Rory McIlroy (2 over) enters the day seeking to climb back up the standings following a challenging opening round on Thursday.
