American golfer Brian Harman emerged victorious in a commanding fashion at the British Open, claiming his first major title on a rain-soaked Hoylake course. Holding a five-shot lead going into the final round, Harman showcased nerves of steel as he sealed a memorable victory with a six-shot margin over the chasing pack.
The final round proved to be a test of character for the world number 26, as he encountered a shaky start on the Royal Liverpool course. A bogey on the second hole, resulting from a wayward approach shot, was followed by another dropped shot on the par-five fifth after a wild tee-shot.
