"Treacherous New Hole Derails Lucas Herbert's Impressive British Open Round"
Lucas Herbert's strong start at the British Open was derailed by the treacherous new hole, the par-3 17th at Royal Liverpool. Despite being tied for the lead, Herbert's tee shot landed in a back bunker, leading to a triple bogey. He acknowledged the difficulty of the hole, which plays to a raised green and is surrounded by deep bunkers. Herbert finished the round even par and remains in a decent position heading into Friday.
