Your support makes all the difference.Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods endured miserable first rounds at The Open on Thursday with American J.B. Holmes ending in the lead after shooting a five under-par 66 at Royal Portrush.
McIlroy wilted in front of a home crowd, labouring to an eight-over-par 79, while a sore Woods was unrecognisable from the player who clinched victory at the Masters in April and finished on seven-over-par.
Ireland’s Shane Lowry was the clubhouse leader for a couple of hours after a four-under-par 67 on a day of wind and squally showers, and lies just one shot back of Holmes.
One further back, a huge pack including Brooks Koepka, Tommy Fleetwood and Jon Rahm remains well within contention.
