The Open Championship Shopping Experience
Golfweek’s Adam Schupak talks to fans at Royal Portrush about what they bought from The Open Championship
It was an up-and-down for Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre, who was within a couple shots of the lead early at the 2025 Open Championship during Saturday’s third round.
But, he had a few too many blemishes on the card, and frustrations boiled over. One of those bogeys came on the par-4 14th, one of the toughest holes during the week, but it brought an incredibly relatable moment for amateur golfers around the world.
Hitting his approach into the green, Bobby Mac didn’t catch his approach shot cleanly. He spiked his club into the turf at Royal Portrush and could only watch as it boomeranged into the air for a couple seconds before coming back down. Talk about an impressive toss.
Take notes, kids.
MacIntyre, who won the Scottish Open last year, will head into the final round inside the top 10 in the final major championship of the year.
