Troon | Xander Schauffele has delivered one of the British Open’s great finishing rounds to tame blustery Royal Troon and clinch his second major triumph of the year in consummate fashion.
He raced out of the pack on Sunday (Monday AEST) to win comfortably with a superb six-under par round of 65, adding the Open to the PGA crown he won just as dazzlingly at Valhalla in May. The landmark performance means Schauffele has joined the greatest of them all, Jack Nicklaus.
