With scoring conditions ideal, birdies and eagles are dropping everywhere around Royal Portrush, with the entire field coming for World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who took a 1-stroke lead into the weekend after a near-perfect 64 on Friday.

Scottie Scheffler was the pre-tournament favorite entering the 2025 Open Championship, but Rory McIlroy was the big story as he looked to put the heartbreak from 2019 in the past and capture the Claret Jug in his home country of Northern Ireland.

But, with 36 holes left, the Claret Jug is still very much up for grabs. Scheffler is paired up with Matt Fitzpatrick, who held a share of the lead after Thursday and then backed that up with a 5-under 66 on Friday. He's starting just a shot back from Scheffler. Brian Harman and Haotong Li are tied at 8-under to start the day, too.

The biggest threat to a delay at The Open is lightning and heavy wind, and there aren't too many threats of that in the forecast. AccuWeather calls for an 80% chance of rain throughout the third round, mostly in the afternoon and evening. The winds shouldn't be too bad either, at least as far as British Opens go.
