Todd KellyAhead of the final qualifiers for the 2025 British Open on Tuesday, there were 15 LIV golfers already in the field for Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. Three more have now joined them.
Fifty-two-year-old Englishman Lee Westwood is headed back to the British Open for the first time since 2022 while past U.S. Open champ and local product, Graeme McDowell, failed to qualify to compete at the course where he grew up.
They were among the 16 LIV golfers spread across the four qualifying sites (three in England, one in Scotland) hoping to play well enough to get in the final men's major of the year. At each site, only the top five would advance and it's noteworthy that the three LIV golfers who survived their qualifier each won their qualifier.
There were two LIV golfers, Paul Casey and Branden Grace, who did not attempt to qualify.
