Round 2 at Royal Birkdale was underway Friday with several marquee players battling to stay inside the Open Championship cut line.
The pressure followed a surprise-filled first round that left some of the tournament’s biggest names needing a recovery day to reach the weekend.
Royal Birkdale in Southport is hosting the July 16-19 championship, the final men’s major of the year.
Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth and Tommy Fleetwood were among the headline players in the field after tee times for the opening two rounds were released earlier.
