Lowry, Holmes Maintain Stronghold on Open Lead
Leaderboard
Pos Player R3 Thru Total
T1 S. Lowry - 10:50 AM -8
T1 J. B. Holmes - 10:50 AM -8
T3 T. Fleetwood - 10:40 AM -7
T3 L. Westwood - 10:40 AM -7
T5 D. Frittelli -1 3 -6
This was as of 10:50 am ET.
Both men would pay big. Scott Lowry pays $6600 for every $100 bet coming into The Open Championship. J.B. Holmes would pay a sick $30000. These odds have since been updated, however, if you locked the early prices in, these are the payouts assuming a win by either golfers.
Betting odds will be available after today's play until the start of Day 4 overnight Saturday, early morning Sunday Eastern Standard Time.

The Haskell is scheduled to go on despite temperatures that should feel like 110 degrees.

@NBCSports An hour and a half later, it feels like 94°. That’s 14° in 90 minutes. Please cancel the #haskell pic.twitter.com/fEaa3w53R6

Disgusted if you have the entire 14 race card. If it was a normal race day you would cancel like Saratoga and Parx did. Because it's Haskell day the greed shows the true colors of Monmouth race track management. pic.twitter.com/yl2Rz5JaSi
