Ryan Fox equaled the lowest round in men’s tournament history on Saturday with an eight-under 62 to finish second and form Sunday’s pair with American Sam Burns.
Burns has a two-shot lead over Fox and Si Woo Kim, while nine of the current top 10 on the leaderboard are chasing a first major title – the exception is Bryson DeChambeau – and are within five strokes of the lead.
Ryan Fox equaled the lowest round in Open history with a third-round 62 at Royal Birkdale.
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler is six strokes back and looking to become the first back-to-back winner of The Open since Padraig Harrington defended his title here in 2008, while Rory McIlroy is eight strokes back after one under 69.
The Open has a record prize money up for grabs, with Sunday’s winner crowned golf champion of the year and taking home the $3.2 million (£2.38 million) first prize.
