Playing windy Open Championship-like golf? Consider a driving iron

At Royal St George’s, Scottie Scheffler employed wind tactics to give himself a great chance to win his first major.

Scheffler wasn’t the only one using a driving iron: Tyrrell Hatton, Viktor Hovland and Rory McIlroy all reached for their driving irons at some point during the round. Patrick Reed, meanwhile, used a driving iron on every hole.Adri Arnaus, who closed with a 66, said: “My favorite club this week is my driving iron, my 2-iron. I’m able to hit it pretty high and pretty long, and It gets me in good positions.”

Tiger in danger of missing 3rd straight major cut

Tiger Woods faces the prospect of missing a third consecutive major championship cut after a torrid first round at The Country Club. The 15-time major champion, who has been struggling with injury and form, carded a six-over 76 in the opening round of the U.S. Open. Woods, who is playing in just his third tournament of the year, struggled with his accuracy off the tee and found himself in the rough on multiple occasions. He also had several three-putts, which added to his woes. If Woods fails to make the cut, it will be the first time in his career that he has missed three major championship cuts in a row.

Why tee height might decide the 2024 Open Championship winner

Tee height will be a key factor in determining the winner of the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A have announced that the tees at Royal Portrush will be raised for the tournament, which could make it more difficult for players to score.

The change in tee height is designed to make the course more challenging and to prevent players from hitting the ball too far. The R&A believe that this will lead to a more exciting and competitive tournament.

However, some players are concerned that the raised tees will make the course too difficult. They argue that it will make it harder to hit the ball close to the hole, and that it will lead to more bogeys and double bogeys.

The debate over tee height is likely to continue in the lead-up to the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A will be hoping that the changes they have made will lead to a more exciting and challenging tournament, but some players will be hoping that the tees are not raised too high.

What to watch in Round 2: Will Royal Troon get any easier? Can Daniel Brown keep it up?

Defending champion Cameron Smith shot a 1-over 72 to sit six shots behind overnight leader Viktor Hovland, while Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm also struggled to get going.

Can anyone tame Royal Troon in Round 2? And can Daniel Brown, the first amateur to lead The Open after the first round since 1947, keep it up?
