The third round of the 2026 British Open at Royal Birkdale is in the books and what a day it was for Sam Burns, who fired a five-under 65 to take a two-shot lead.
Burns is looking to win his first major and this would be a pretty sweet one to get as he and his wife just welcomed their second child a few weeks ago. It would also come a month after he narrowly missed out on forcing a playoff at the U.S. Open.
