Congratulations to Xander Schauffele,MK sport then.He kept grinding during tough conditions, never buckling when some of the world’s finest fell by the wayside … and when opportunity presented itself, made four birdies in six holes on the treacherous back nine to seize the day. A most deserving winner and a name that won’t look out of place on the Open roll of honour. Commiserations to Justin Rose, Billy Horschel and Thriston Lawrence, who came so close to glory. And thanks to you for reading this blog over the last four days. See you again next year at Portrush? It’s a date!
