HOYLAKE, England — Brian Harman turned back every challenge in the British Open, from big names to bad weather, and took his place among major champions...
And then the avid outdoorsman made winning golf’s oldest championship look as easy as shooting fish in a barrel.
Masters champion Jon Rahm birdied his last hole for a 70 to make it a four-way tie for second place with“He won by six, so there’s nothing really any of us could have done,” Rahm said. Harman took the lead on Friday morning with the second of four straight birdies early in the second round. He never trailed over the final 51 holes, leading by five shots after the second round and five shots after the third round.He started the round in the rain with a smattering of boos from the grandstand, fans either wanting a big star or perhaps not paying attention to the masterclass performance Harman had delivered.
