Jordan Spieth leads the British Open by three strokes heading into Sunday's final round, where he could enter a very exclusive club with a win. He solved that complication with a suitably aggressive 65, and he reshaped the tenor of the 146th British Open. In the five majors between then and now, he entered Sunday 16 shots behind, 17 shots behind, eight shots behind, two shots behind and 16 shots behind. Those included arguably the greatest round ever played, Johnny Miller’s closing 63 at the diabolical Oakmont near Pittsburgh in the 1973 U.S. Open. It’s a real shame.” McIlroy shot 69 and bemoaned various a “bad” swing here and a “wrong” club there.
