After an enthralling second round at St Andrews, it is Cameron Smith who leads by two from first round leader, Cameron Young.
On Friday, Smith produced five birdies on the front nine, before a birdie and an eagle over the final nine holes gave him a two shot advantage, as he looks to add to his Players Championship victory from March.
A number of big names missed the cut at the Old Course, with Tiger Woods given an emotional send off to the 150th Championship, as he revealed: “I feel like I will be able to play future British Opens. I don’t know if I’ll be able to play long enough to play another one here."
Unlike previous Open Championships, the weather hasn't played as much of a part, with the wind being low, by Links standards, and only a tiny bit of rain coming down during the opening day.
With the tournament still wide open, could the weather play a part in the final result of this great championship? Below, we take a look at what is set to occur on Saturday and Sunday.
