A British Open winner in 1986, 15 years before it became a major, the 53-year-old birdied the 18th hole for a four-under-par 68. But she did remind everyone that a 59-year-old Tom Watson nearly won the Open in 2009. Wie's best result in the British Open was a tie for third on her debut as a 15-year-old at Royal Birkdale in 2005. But the nine-birdie round raised her hopes of collecting a second major title. Defending champion Ariya Jutanugarn and world number one Ryu So-Yeon were playing together and both shot one-under rounds of 71.
