After enlarging his legend by conquering the US Open a few weeks ago, Jon Rahm has started the race today to win what is surely the most emblematic golf tournament, the British Open, a double that only the great Tiger Woods in 2000. Despite the euphoria with which the Basque arrived in Scotland, the first day has not been entirely satisfactory. Rahm finished the day with a +1 card and has not performed well from the green. Only a good final eagle helped to minimize the damage.
Despite the condition of favorite of the Spanish athlete, the top positions in the table are occupied by golfers of Anglo-Saxon origin, most of them South Africans, as well as English and Americans. The african Louis Oosthuizen (-6), the main opponent of Spanish in the United States, opens the classification. Rahm, after a hard day, is currently seven strokes away from him. The other Spaniards, Sergio García, Rafael Cabrera Bello, Jorge Campillo and Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño did not have a bright day either. Tomorrow they will have a second chance.
