The Open 2024: Brian Harman Gets Very Lucky – Ball Takes Bridge Over Creek

Brian Harman is an outstanding golfer, there’s no question about that. But even a defending Open champion sometimes needs a bit of luck. And he deserved it in the final round at Troon. The tee shot on the third hole with a driving iron rolled out so far that it came dangerously close to the small stream that divided the fairway. If it hadn’t been for the small bridges over which the players also cross the burn, the ball would have landed in the water. But as luck would have it, Harman’s ball arrived dry on the other side.
