Harman’s stunning 65 got him to 10-under-par 132 at the midpoint of the 151st British Open — good for a five-shot lead over local Tommy Fleetwood. American leads by five after two rounds, and how to handle that cushion over the weekend is the question.
This format, though, is not without its blowouts. They can be memorable, too. Tiger Woods at Augusta in 1997 or Pebble Beach in 2000. Rory McIlroy at Congressional in 2011. Jordan Spieth at the 2015 Masters.
Hold the jokes about carving up the field. Harman isn’t wholly unfamiliar with his current situation because he held the 54-hole lead at the 2017 U.S. Open. On that Sunday, he — and the field — were blitzed by Brooks Koepka’s closing 67. Harman shot even-par 72. He thinks he learned from the experience.
“A lot of pressure on Brian right now to kind of extend that lead,” Day said. “But there’s a lot of good players right now that are trying to catch him.”
