Jul 19 @ 6:00 AM

Pick the correct answer.

Points
Yes — Burns wins the Claret JugHe opened with a 73 and nobody gave him a chance. Then 62, 65. He’s earned this. Burns holds and lifts the Claret Jug.
+1
No — someone catches himCorrectLeading a major on Sunday is the hardest thing in golf. Fox, Kim and the chasers are right there. The history of links golf is full of Sunday collapses.

Pick the correct answer.

Points
Yes — Fleetwood top 5CorrectHis home course. His crowd. Every birdie met with a roar that shakes the grandstands. This is his moment.

Will the winning score be double digits under par?

Jul 19 @ 6:00 AM

Jul 19 @ 6:00 AM

Points
Yes — Scheffler top 10CorrectSix back but the world No. 1 never goes quietly. A top-10 finish would at least be a respectable defence of his title.
