Southport, England: He may not have one of the most recognisable faces among competitors at the 154th Open Championship. But, at six-foot five inches tall, Marcus Plunkett stands head and shoulders above most of his rivals in the 156-player starting line-up. Report by Spencer Robinson – Asian Tour contributor.

Despite sitting a lowly 777th in the Official World Golf Ranking, the 32-year-old American has been garnering plenty of attention ahead of his Major debut at Royal Birkdale Golf Club. And not just because of his height.

Southport, England: Travis Smyth cut a contented figure as he strolled around the village of Birkdale, taking in the sights and sounds of the area that is playing host to this week’s 154th edition of The Open Championship. Story by Spencer Robinson, Asian Tour contributor.

“Birkdale village is so beautiful. You’ve got awesome little cafes, bars and restaurants. It’s got a really nice vibe to it,” said the 31-year-old Australian. “Pretty much everyone here is getting around the tournament which is really cool.”

Ahead of his second Open Championship appearance, Smyth has every reason to be at peace with himself – and confident about his prospects in the northwest of England.

With an eight-under-par 62 in round two of the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, the Australian equalled the all-time low round in the 166-year history of men’s Major championship golf. A fabulous feat worth celebrating.

While justifiably proud of his achievement, Herbert was also left to ponder on a final-hole bogey that denied him the chance to create history with a first-ever 61 at the very highest level of the game.

“I’m absolutely disappointed (not to shoot 61), and at the same time, so proud of today,” said Herbert, whose 62 was emulated by American Sam Burns less than an hour later.

Southport, England: There’s clearly something about Lancashire links courses and the northwest of England that agrees with Tom Kim. Report by Spencer Robinson – Asian Tour contributor.

It was three years ago that the Korean caused a major stir when he placed runner-up to American Brian Harman at Royal Liverpool in what was only his second Open Championship appearance.

This week, the former Asian Tour Order of Merit winner is aiming to go one better at Royal Birkdale, a course that is less than 30 miles north of the venue at which he made his first run at a Major title in 2023.

On the opening-day of the 154th edition of golf’s original championship, Kim found himself on the wrong side of the draw, a 1.31 pm start time meaning he was among those who experienced the most challenging of the conditions with the winds whipping up in the afternoon.

Not since Carnoustie in 2018 and Muirfield before that, arguably, in 2013 have the fairways at an Open Championship appeared so parched.

But who will plot their path along the yellow brick road to a Claret Jug?

While temperatures are set to fall as the week progresses, the forecasts suggest the sun and cobalt skies are set to persist with wind gusts set to drop in strength to a relatively gentle breeze across all four rounds.

Despite the prolonged spell of hot, dry weather across much of England over recent weeks, there has been a surprise among many players at just how scorched the general appearance of the course is.
