British Open final round live updates, leaderboard: Scottie Scheffler is running away from the field
Scottie Scheffler holds a four-shot lead going into the final round of the British Open. The top-ranked golfer in the world fired a bogey-free round on Saturday. Haotong Li, Harris English, Matt Fitzpatrick and Rory McIlroy are all in the hunt for the Claret Jug.
Scheffler entered Sunday’s round with a massive four-shot lead at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland, which has him on the cusp of claiming his fourth career major championship and his first ever Claret Jug. The top-ranked golfer in the world fired a bogey-free round on Saturday with ease, and nobody else seemed able to even make a dent in his lead.

We’ve been here plenty of times before. Scheffler has won all three of his other major championships after holding a 54-hole lead. He’s actually won his last nine tournaments when he’s held the lead at that point of an event, too.
Chasing him are Haotong Li, Harris English, Matt Fitzpatrick and Rory McIlroy — who started the day six shots back despite his own impressive 5-under outing on Saturday. But it all seems to no avail as Scheffler is running away from field.
