## Resource

The Open Championship returns to Royal Birkdale after a six-year absence, featuring a stacked field of 156 golfers, including defending champ Scottie Scheffler, Masters winner Rory McIlroy, and last year’s Birkdale victor Jordan Spieth. With a unique cut rule—top 70 plus ties advance after 36 holes (no 10-shot buffer)—this major stands apart from the Masters and U.S. Open. Recent cut scores have ranged from even par to 6 over, depending on course difficulty, making this year’s cutline a pivotal storyline as the pressure mounts from day one.
