Xander Schauffele

Xander Schauffele is looking for his first PGA Tour win since 2022, following the Travelers Championship and Scottish Open just ahead of the 150th Open Championship.

With the golf data, Xander Schauffele has a 57 per cent chance of winning this tournament thanks to his four-shot lead.

Rory Mcllory

McIlroy shot a bogey-free three-under-par 68 at Quail Hollow, and he is just four shots off leader Xander Schauffele. On Friday, Rory McIlroy shot a faultless 18 holes with three birdies for a three-under par 67. At the moment, Rory Mcllory is one of the two golfers in the top 13 losing strokes with the putter, and only one golfer is ahead of him. Having won this tournament at this same venue three times, in 2010, 2015, and 2021, Northern Irish golfers hope to step up here and win another year.
