Vejret var i top – måske lidt varmt – da deltagerne i The Open Championship spillede prøverunde på Royal Birkdale, og der var kaskader af spørgsmål fra journalisterne i presserummet til de mange spillere.
Vil Scottie Scheffler gentage sin sejr fra sidste år? Mange tvivler, fordi han ikke har spillet overbevisende i de seneste uger, men hvis det går efter popularitet, kan han godt vinde. Autografjægerne stod i en lang kø og kunne glæde sig over, at ingen blev snydt.
