A thrilling 2025 golf season has reached its final major as The Open Championship continues its 153rd playing this weekend at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. The oldest golf tournament in the world is back in Portrush for the first time in six years with the Claret Jug set to be awarded on site Sunday for just the third time in event history.

Garcia, who missed the cut at the Masters, finished T-67 at the PGA Championship and failed to qualify for the U.S. Open, will clearly be leaning heavily on a few alternate factors. First, his LIV Golf performance, where he's currently fifth in the season standings with a victory in Hong Kong earlier in the year.

Scheffler enters the final day of play at the Open Championship with a comfortable lead, looking to keep his spot at the top of the leaderboard on Sunday.

A look at the largest margins of victory in Open Championship history, including Old Tom Morris' 13-shot win in 1862.

Scheffler recorded a pair of birdies and an eagle at the seventh hole to create the separation going into Sunday. The impressive round gave him the 54-hole lead. He is 3-for-3 in majors when he owns the lead after the third round. The latest win came at the 2025 PGA Championship.

British Open is down to its final round. Here's how the weather forecast might affect play at Royal Portrush on Sunday.

The R&A announced The Open will carry the same prize pool as 2024's record-setting purse with the winner taking home a $3.1 million check like Xander Schauffele did last year. That is a handsome payday but not one all that uncommon at this time in professional golf.

With Scottie Scheffler holding a four-shot lead through 54 holes, the final round of the 2025 British Open seems like a foregone conclusion. Even for those competing against the World No. 1. But at least one golf fan is confident that there will be a final-round comeback.
