Live projected cut line updates from Round 2 of the 2025 Open Championship. Some of the world's best golfers have work to do Friday to make the cut.

On Friday at the 2025 British Open, eyes tend to go to to the top of the leaderboard but also to the projected cut line.

There’s old faithful and then there’s really old faithful. At Royal Portrush G.C., Robert MacIntyre is challenging to become Champion Golfer of the Year with a club in the bag that dates back to 2014—or when MacIntyre was a mere teenager.

The jug goes to the winner of the Open Championship, who is otherwise known as the champion golfer of the year. The face belongs to Shane Lowry, who won the Open in 2019, the last time it was played in Portrush, a seaside town in County Antrim, Northern Ireland.

Rory McIlroy shot 1-under 70 in the first round of the British Open at Royal Portrush that is also serving as a homecoming for the Northern Irish star.

Shane Lowry unleashing F-bomb rants during golf tournaments is certainly nothing new. He did it at this year's PGA Championship. He did it at last year's British Open. He, well, you get the point. But what happened on Friday was still a bit shocking from the Irishman.

The "Golden Bear" and 18-time major winner won the first of his three Opens and completed the first of his three career grand slams along the southeastern Scottish coast in 1966, then called the par-71 layout "the best golf course in Britain."
