PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland - Ireland’s Shane Lowry proved master of the Dunluce links for the second successive day to move into a share of the halfway lead with American J.B. Holmes at the British Open on Friday.
McIlroy will miss out on the weekend along with Tiger Woods, who shot a one-under 70 but still ended six-over for his two rounds. English duo Tommy Fleetwood and Lee Westwood, both looking for their first majors, made hay with rounds of 68 moving them to seven under while South African Justin Harding’s posted the lowest round of the day, six birdies and an eagle helping him to a six-under 65 to move three off the lead.
Holmes left several other bigger-name Americans in the shade again although Brooks Koepka, the world number one, and 2017 winner Jordan Spieth, are well-placed to challenge on five under.There will be no Woods or Phil Mickelson on Saturday, meaning it is the first time in the 83 majors in which the two American heavyweights have both appeared that neither survived for the weekend.
“Next week I’ll be in Memphis and there will be 10 men and a dog following me. There will be thousands of Irish people roaring me on. Will be amazing.” “There’s too much ground to cover before Sunday night. There’s a long way to go in this tournament,” Westwood said.
