Posted : 23 July 2023
Brian Harman, acknowledging his struggles under pressure, demonstrated resilience at The 151st Open when his lead began to slip away. Despite two early bogeys, the 36-year-old regained his composure and finished his third round in a commanding position at Royal Liverpool.
Sitting at 12-under-par, Harman holds a five-shot lead over Cameron Young, crediting his patience and focus for the impressive turnaround.
While his putting had given him a substantial lead after 36 holes, Harman didn't reach his own high standards on the greens during the third round. However, he managed to maintain his advantage over the field at Hoylake, ensuring a lead at a major going into Sunday for the second time in his career.
With past experiences in leading a major, Harman plans to stay focused and not get carried away with thoughts of lifting the Claret Jug.
Although he envisions the possibility of winning the trophy and has dreamt of winning majors throughout his life, Harman understands that execution and staying in the moment are crucial for success.
His dedication and hard work have brought him to this position, and he aims to maintain his focus on the golf and execute his game plan to achieve victory. With a good night's sleep ahead, Harman is ready to face the final round with determination and ambition.
