SportsLine's model simulated the 2025 British Open 10,000 times and revealed its PGA Tour golf picks for Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and others from Royal Portrush

The first day of the 2025 Open Championship is expected to be rainy, with periods of heavy rain that could accumulate up to a quarter of an inch. The high temperature is expected to be around 69 degrees, with a low of 57 degrees, and winds will range from 10 to 20 miles per hour, according to The Weather Channel.

The Open has had 28 different winners aged 38 or older all-time, the same number as the Masters and U.S. Open combined.

If two or more players are tied through 72 holes of regulation, they will compete over three playoff holes with the scores being added up. If there is still a tie between at least two players, sudden death will be used.

The start of The Open Championship in Portrush on Saturday is being brought forward due to a band parade in the town. More than 70 bands and about 2,000 people are due to be involved in the event which has been organised by Portrush Sons of Ulster on Saturday evening, as the golf tournament finishes for the day nearby.

Mark Darbon added that he had a "good discussion" with Eric Trump and other executives over a potential return of the Open to Turnberry.

Scheffler may be indifferent to obtaining another accolade, but there appears to be no stopping his top-notch play
