Scottie Scheffler kept a cool hand on the tiller to stay on course for his first British Open title with a serene 67 on a spectacular day of shot-making in Saturday's third round. Birdies and eagles rained down on a sun-kissed Royal Portrush links with home favourite Rory McIlroy, England's Tyrrell Hatton and defending champion Xander Schauffele all tucking into the scoring feast. Thunderous roars wafted across the County Antrim coast, the loudest for some McIlroy magic, but world number one Scheffler was laser-focused to move to 14 under par and a four-stroke lead heading to the final day. Barring a sudden loss of form by the three-time major champion, the last round looks like being a scrap for the minor places, although Scheffler is not out of sight. McIlroy will tee off at 2.20pm BST in his Open third round on the afternoon of Sunday, July 20, 2025. He will be joined by Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick in the penultimate pairing.
