It may be Rory McIlroy¡¯s homeland, but it¡¯s once again shaping up to be Scottie Scheffler¡¯s week.
Scheffler is one round away from his fourth major championship in four years after opening up a four-stroke lead at the British Open on Saturday in Portrush, Northern Ireland.
Scheffler posted a workmanlike 4-under-par 67 at Royal Portrush to get to 14-under 199, with China¡¯s Haotong Li (69) his closest pursuer at 10 under. On a day where the majority of the field shot under par ¡ª and six of the top eight players made at least one eagle ¡ª Scheffler kept his round bogey-free to remain in the driver¡¯s seat.
