Scottie Scheffler won the Open decisively, converting his 54-hole lead for the tenth time. Starting with a rough tee shot, he quickly regained control, showcasing impressive skill on the Dunluce Links. By the 5th tee, he had a seven-stroke lead, demonstrating his dominant performance. Despite a joint-high 68 in the final round, he finished at 17 under par. Scheffler's understated approach and family presence at the 18th green emphasized that while he excels in golf, he doesn't allow it to define him. Harris English finished second, though never posed a real threat to Scheffler's lead.
Scheffler enjoyed a sun-kissed procession on the Dunluce Links, with the possibility of handing over the Claret Jug on the 5th tee due to his seven-stroke lead.
This triumph was by a quartet of shots, but it felt like so much more, as Scheffler missed several chances to lower his score on the back nine.
