British Open Leaderboard 2026 Review of Top Scorecards and Player Stats on Day 1

Jackson Suber emerged as the unlikely 18-hole leader at The Open Championship.

The 26-year-old American topped the leaderboard with a five-under 65 at Royal Birkdale.

Suber, who is playing in just his third-career major, sits one stroke ahead of Sungjae Im and Daniel Brown.

A large group of players sits two shots back of Suber, including Bryson DeChambeau, who, at least for one day, put himself in a spot to contend after a brutal first three majors.

A handful of notable names reside on the other end of the leaderboard, led by Rory McIlroy.

McIlroy shot a two-over 72. His tournament is far from over, but he has some work to do on Friday to sneak back into contention.
