Due to many weather delays, the 2015 British Open will finish with its final round on Monday for the second-time ever.
Of the four majors, the British Open is by far the riskiest. Wind, rain and the changing weather conditions produce a very unpredictable golf tournament for the best in the world.

The 2015 British Open will now finish on Monday, not Sunday due to weather delays.

Playing conditions proved to be just too much.

As far as the leaderboard is concerned, Dustin Johnson and Danny Willet are still looking down at everyone else with a -9. Jordan Spieth continues to lurk just four-shots behind.
