The Open Championship 2025 is underway at Royal Portrush, where the wind and tricky terrain are giving even the top golfers a tough time. After the first round, five players are tied at the top, but that won't last long.

Whether you're waking up, taking a break from work, or just want to follow along, there's plenty to watch. Stay tuned for live updates, stats, and highlights as the second round unfolds.
