When the R&A decided to move the British Open third round schedule up and send players off split tees for the first time in 143 years at this championship, we knew the incoming weather was going to be rough. It's now playable out there at Royal Liverpool, but whether it's enjoyable is a different matter. Weather is going to be a part of almost every Open Championship, and it looks like the rain, clouds, and wind are going to hover all day at Hoylake. The lightning, which caused the scheduled change, is gone.
The rain occasionally stops but those blips should be only momentary spots of relief. This is the kind of view that many of the fans will have all day, as the grandstands are just a collage of umbrellas.

Many of these British Open fans are probably used to watching golf this way, and the crowds seem just as large as the first two days. But it does not look fun for anyone on the grounds of Royal Liverpool right now.
