British Open Updates – Live Golf News, Highlights & Player Stories

Welcome to your one‑stop spot for everything British Open. Whether you’re a die‑hard fan or just catching a few rounds on TV, we’ve got the scores, the drama and the stories you need to stay in the loop.

What’s Happening at This Year’s British Open?

The 2025 British Open rolls into St Andrews with a field that reads like a Hall of Fame. Veteran Rory McIlroy is looking for that elusive fifth major, while young sensation Viktor Hovland hopes to turn his recent form into a first major win. Watch out for surprise moves from local talent Tommy Fleetwood, who loves the links and always brings big drives.

Weather is a big factor. Rain and wind can turn a fair‑way into a swamp, so expect scores to swing wildly. Keep an eye on the leaderboards each morning – a single putt can change the entire line‑up.

Streaming options are simple: the tournament streams live on Sky Sports in the UK, while NBC Sports carries it in the US. If you’re in Africa, BassaNova links you to the best local broadcasters, so you never miss a swing.
