Justin Thomas and Dustin Johnson are among the notable golfers who missed the cut at the 2023 British Open at Royal Liverpool. Thomas struggled with an opening round of 82, marking his third missed cut in major championships this season.

Tony Finau also missed the cut after three consecutive bogeys, ending his streak of six straight cuts made at the Open.
The 2023 British Open Championship is expected to be a dramatic event with multiple top names in great form. Royal Liverpool, the host course, presents challenges with its doglegs, internal out-of-bounds areas, and unpredictable seaside weather. DraftKings has introduced a new pricing tier, offering the opportunity for unique and lower-owned lineups. Rickie Fowler is a popular pick but may not be worth his high price and projected ownership. Dustin Johnson, on the other hand, is a strong pivot option with a great record at the British Open. Tony Finau is likely to be a popular pick but has struggled with recent form, making him a fade. Max Homa, with improved play and lower ownership, is a solid pivot option. Brian Harman's recent strong finishes may make him overvalued, while Si Woo Kim offers great talent and upside at a lower ownership percentage.

Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele made history by scoring the lowest rounds in U.S. Open history, standing at 8 under by day's end, two clear of Dustin Johnson and three clear of Rory McIlroy. The course played extremely easy for competitors as the first round of the 2023 U.S. Open marked the most rounds of 65 or lower being recorded in a single round across the history of the national championship.
Rory McIlroy is two shots off the lead after the first round of the 2023 US Open, with Dustin Johnson leading the way at seven under par. Brian Harman is three shots off the lead at five under par, while defending champion Matt Fitzpatrick finished one over par. The challenging course at Los Angeles Country Club is expected to test the contenders across four demanding rounds, with low scores unlikely. The unexpected news of a merger between the controversial Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series and the PGA Tour adds to the anticipation.
The PGA Championship resumes on Friday at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, New York, with Eric Cole holding the solo lead after a solid showing on Thursday. Bryson DeChambeau is one stroke behind at 4-under, while Scottie Scheffler, Corey Conners, and Dustin Johnson are all at 3-under. Tom Kim's fall into the mud and creek on No. 6 was the moment of the day. Follow the latest scores with the Round 2 leaderboard.
As the delayed first round of the PGA Championship at Oak Hill comes to a close, many top players are struggling to make the cut, with pundits predicting that an 18-handicap golfer would struggle to break 120 on the course. Meanwhile, Jim Nantz took a jab at LIV Golf before Dustin Johnson's tee shot, and Brooks Koepka revealed that his dejected appearance in a scene from the Netflix docudrama 'Full Swing' was due to a bad March Madness bet, not his golf game.
Golf announcer Jim Nantz took another subtle jab at the controversial Saudi Arabian-backed golf league, LIV Golf, during the PGA Championship. Nantz referenced Dustin Johnson's recent win at a LIV Golf tournament, which was poorly broadcasted and cut away from by most affiliates of The CW. Johnson is one of 16 LIV Golf members in the field this week. Nantz has previously made similar comments about LIV Golf during the Masters.
LIV Golf's broadcast of Dustin Johnson's playoff win was cut off by the CW network, with some affiliates switching to other shows instead of airing the thrilling finish. Viewers were directed to the CW app and website to continue watching. LIV Golf has struggled to bring in ratings for the CW. Johnson won his second LIV Golf title, his first of the current season, in front of one of the best-attended LIV Golf events in Tulsa. The next event will be held at the Trump National Golf Club in Washington, D.C.
The CW cut away from LIV Golf's tournament coverage during the exciting finish of Dustin Johnson's win, opting for regularly scheduled programming instead. Affiliates showed local news programs, sitcom reruns, and infomercials. The only way to keep up with the end of the tournament was through The CW app. LIV Golf's ratings haven't been great so far in its second season, and the decision to cut away from the biggest moment of the weekend in Oklahoma on Sunday shows just how far LIV Golf truly has to go broadcast-wise in its battle to compete with the PGA Tour.
