The Open 2021 LIVE: Leaderboard and reaction as Collin Morikawa wins the Claret Jug at Royal St George’s

Schauffele then birdies the par-five 15th to move to -3, and match Fowler and DeChambeau at -5 for the day. The run of holes from 12 to 14 seem to presenting players with plenty of opportunities so far today.

Louis Oosthuizen and Collin Morikawa have arrived at Royal St George’s ahead of their 2:35 pm tee time.

Back-to-back threes for Lee Westwood as he follows up his eagle at the 7th with a birdie at the 8th to move to -2. Tony Finau drops a shot at the 5th as he moves back to -3. Xander Schauffele fires his fourth birdie of the day at the 13th to move to -2.

Bryson DeChambeau makes his third birdie in a row at the par-five 14th to move to -5 for the day. That moves him to -2 overall and within a couple of shots of the top 20.

Justin Rose (-3) gets his final round underway on the first tee but Ian Poulter has dropped back to +1 after back-to-back bogeys at 4 and 5.

Tony Finau moves into the top 20 with his second birdie in his opening four holes to move to -4 overall, that after a straight 12 foot putt from the edge of the 4th green.

Brooks Koepka gets his final round underway and manages to find the 1st green in two despite sending his drive into the long rough on the left of the fairway.

Further ahead, there’s a huge cheer for Lee Westwood who rolls in an eagle putt at the par-five 7th to move to -1 for the day and overall.

Rickie Fowler’s chances of competing for the championship were rather ended by his 75 yesterday, but the American has responded today with a five-under-par 65 to match the lowest score of the weekend.

DeChambeau gets into the red as he makes back-to-back birdies at 12 and 13. That came after a stunning approach shot to the 13th green which left a birdie putt from three or four feet. DeChambeau is -4 for his round, with the par-five 15th to come.

McIlroy gets back to where he started after making birdie at the par-three 3rd but immediately gets into another spot of bother at the 4th. His approach shot finds the rough at the left side of the green, leading to a tough chip which takes a bounce and runs about 10 feet away from the hole. The par putt runs past the hole and he then taps in for his second bogey of the day.

Tommy Fleetwood sends his opening drive down the middle of the first fairway. The Englishman shot 70 yesterday to remain at -2 overall, but will be looking to make up a couple of shots today to move into the top 20. He’s playing with Norwegian Viktor Hovland, who has quietly had a solid week and is eyeing up a Ryder Cup spot for later in the year.

Bryson DeChambeau makes his third birdie of the day to move to -3 for his round and even par overall. The American has never shot sub-70 at the Open but looks in a good position to break that run today with six holes left to play.

It’s another glorious day at Royal St George’s, and there’s certainly some scoring to be had in these conditions. Xander Schauffele has made it to the turn in 32 after picking up three birdies on his front nine holes to move to -1 overall.

Justin Thomas, meanwhile, drops further back after back-to-back bogeys at the 2nd and 3rd, as McIlroy makes par at the 2nd after having he chance to pick up a bounce-back birdie.

A tough start of McIlroy. From the deep rough on the right side of the fairway, he skews his second shot into the rough on the left, about 50 yards from the green. His ball ends up behind a electronic scoreboard and after being able to move it by a couple of club lengths, his chips onto the edge of the green. The par putt rolls a foot past the hole and he taps in for his five.

Rory McIlroy gets his fourth and final round underway, finding the right edge of the long rough with his drive off the first tee. McIlroy shot a 69 yesterday, following opening rounds of 70, but it could have been a lot lower for the Northern Irishman, who was -4 at the turn.

Bryson DeChambeau, who has just completed his front nine, is under par for his round for the first time this week. The American is -2 through the opening nine holes, moving him to +1 overall.

It’s Rickie Fowler, however, who is setting the pace today, in terms of low scoring. Fowler is -5 for his round through 14 and is on a run of three birdies in a row to go along with an eagle at the par-five 7th. That puts him to +1 overall as it stands.
