The Open Championship 2026 Live Updates, Latest Results, Highlights and Scores for Fourth Round

Just like he's done all tournament, Fox wasted no time standing over this shot. He's hit brilliant shots without overthinking a single one throughout the weekend.

Just the fifth birdie on No. 18 today, and this was clearly the most consequential. Ryan Fox is a major champion for the first time at age 39, and he absolutely earned this one.

Overcoming a pair of bad breaks that put him in bunkers on the back nine, Fox coolly drilled the winner and elicited a Fleetwood-level roar from the gallery.

And Burns' tee shot was even better.

Fox and Burns both hit absolute lasers into perfect position off the tee at 18. Fox needs a birdie to win it, and Burns can join the clubhouse leader, Cam Young, if he birdies and Fox makes par or worse. The 18th has been brutally tough all day. Bogeys are still in play here, even with a pair of excellent drives to start.

Scheffler's TIO relief at No. 17 helped, but so did knowing the rules.

He won't win it, but local product Tommy Fleetwood has been a champ all week.

He probably needs a birdie on 17, as Fleetwood's closing birdie on 18 was just the third of the day. This is the time to make a move.

Fox has to play it out of the bunker backwards on 15 but then manages to get up and down for a bogey. That's all he could have hoped for after a brutal break off the tee.

An absolute nightmare of a lie, probably unplayable, for Ryan Fox off the tee on 15. He's right up against the lip of a green-side bunker and has almost no chance to get a club on it.

Just after gaining a share of the lead, he'll be fortunate to drop just one shot here.

Back-to-back birdies on 13 and 14 vault Ryan Fox into a tie with Cam Young for a share of the lead. He's one shot under par today and needs to make a move in this next stretch of holes before No. 18, which nobody is scoring on.

A relatively quiet day for Ryan Fox so far, but he's hanging tough at even par on Sunday and just one shot back of the leader, Cameron Young.

It won't end up deciding the winner, but we might as well educate ourselves on the (correct) ruling for Scheffler on 17.

Also of note: Scheffler couldn't make a tough birdie putt from off the green at 18 and will not join Young at 9-under. Kim and Burns are the likeliest candidates to catch him, but Young's position continues to appear unreachable.

Remember that note earlier about how Si Woo Kim has avoided trouble all week? Well, he just bogeyed 11 and 12 to fall out of the lead.

We take full responsibility for this jinx and will issue a formal apology through the appropriate channels.

Scottie Scheffler's lost ball at 17 didn't hurt him. That's going to upset some people.

Scheffler hits it a mile right off the tee at 18 but has a good lie in the trampled rough. If he can put this on the green and knock in a birdie, he'll tie the leaders at 9-under par. Brace for a lot of takes on the TIO he got at 17 if he pulls this off.

After much discussion, Scheffler gets Temporary Immovable Object relief after an errant drive and even shakier second shot. He throws a dart onto the green after getting relief for his third shot, cans the birdie putt and sits at eight-under par, tied for third.

This is a remarkable, and perhaps controversial, save. TIO rulings are getting wild.

This feels relevant as Scheffler blows up on 17 and Bryson cards a triple-bogey within a few minutes of one another.

DeChambeau triples No. 11 after failing to find his ball off the tee. He's at 4-over on the day and has fallen all the way to a tie for 29th. The only silver lining is we won't have to hear about how he could have contended without the two-shot penalty on Friday.

Scheffler unravels at 17, hitting it way into the long stuff after locating the tee shot that generated this reaction. He was right in position to make this thing interesting but is hitting a rough patch at the worst time.

Fleetwood makes his third straight bogey to fall to ninth at five under par. He had three bogeys in a row to finish his first round and recovered, but he's running out of holes to lower his score this time around.

One of the best stories imaginable, a Fleetwood win, feels out of reach.

Cam Young very nearly took the clubhouse lead with this bunker shot. Would have been an incredible save for par.

Brilliant round by Cameron Young to finish at 6-under par 64 for the day. His bogey at 18 stung, but he hits the clubhouse at 9-under par, just one back of the leader, Si Woo Kim.

Cam Young drove it into a pot bunker on the impossibly long par-4 18th, smacked it off the face to send it straight right and now has no angle to the flag for his third shot. Puts it in a green-side bunker from which he'll have to hole out to save par. Life comes at you fast.

Young heads into 18, which has played tougher than any other hole today, coming off a birdie at 17 to tie Kim at 10-under par. If he can close this out with another birdie, he'll have to feel great about his chances.

There we go! Some of the first visual evidence that the broadcast is aware of Kim's existence.

However this thing ends up, this has been a tremendous round by Young. He got a little loose off the tee on 17 and will need to make something happen to stick at 9-under going into the last hole of the tournament.

Kim is atop the leaderboard after back-to-back birdies, including a long putt he just jarred from the fringe on No. 5. He leads the PGA tour with nine top-10 finishes on the season and is in great position to collect his first career major.

It's unclear if the broadcast is allowed to show or even reference Si Woo Kim, who's been the steadiest player in the final groups and is now alone at No. 1 with a score of 10-under par.

If you just felt a rumble or heard a roar and are in the Northern Hemisphere, it was probably the crowd reacting to the birdie Fleetwood just carded to move to eight-under par.

Scheffler finally makes a birdie putt longer than seven feet at No. 12. He'd gone 58 holes without dropping one of at least that length. Now sitting alone in fifth at 8-under par, the 2025 Open champion is only two back of Burns. Six holes left to play for Scottie.

Just like that, Young is right on Burns' heels. The leader needs to close out the front nine with at least another birdie or two to feel comfortable down the stretch.

Prevailing wisdom seems to be that as the course continues to dry out, low scores will be harder to come by. It's hard to imagine 10-under par will win this thing, but we haven't seen many birdies since the leaders teed off about an hour ago.

Though he'd cooled off for a few holes, Cameron Young added another birdie at 14, his sixth of the day. Now tied for second after moving up 18 spots on the leaderboard from his starting position.

Sam Burns continues to make the most of his approach opportunities. A few more like this, and he'll create some real breathing room. Ryan Fox isn't going away after yesterday's 62, though. He's 1-under so far today.

Cam Young and Russell Henley were both red hot on the front this morning and are each 5-under par on the day but haven't managed to keep the birdies coming on the back nine. Will this be a repeat of Saturday where there's a great scoring window early that gets a little narrower later on?

Everybody's getting plenty of run off the tee, thanks to dry and windy conditions all week.

Imagine how interesting things would be if Scheffler could knock in a few of these longer opportunities.

Crowd favorite and hometown product Tommy Fleetwood has generated the loudest applause all week. This might have set a new high bar.

If you were trying to come up with the best way to make the leaders nervous, it would look a lot like this.

The leaders are off the first tee, but the big early stories involve some hot starts ahead of them. Cam Young shot 5 under par on the front and is now just two back of the lead at 8-under.
