Description
Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme break down all the action from day one of the 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon, where Smylie is on-site broadcasting the major for NBC Sports. On a day with wind, rain and cold dominating the early wave, it was Daniel Brown who surged to the first-round lead near the conclusion of the late wave, while Smylie called the action from the booth on Peacock. SK and CH reflect on the day that Shane Lowry had sitting in solo second, a guy that Smylie loved as part of his weekly picks. Rory McIlroy's round got away from him quickly on Thursday - Smylie offers insights as the walker who was assigned to follow Rory's group. Finally, Smylie and Charlie discuss another hot start for Justin Thomas on the strength of an excellent putting performance, and whether he can sustain that momentum for the next three days.
