The 2015 Open Championship was the 144th Open Championship, held 16–20 July 2015 at Old Course at St Andrews in Fife, Scotland. It was the 29th Open Championship played at St Andrews. Zach Johnson won the Championship in a 4-hole playoff.

World number one Rory McIlroy withdrew prior to the tournament due to an off-course ankle injury, the first defending champion absent from the Open since 1954, when Ben Hogan opted not to participate. Jordan Spieth entered with a chance to win his third consecutive major and take over the top ranking.[2][3] Spieth finished tied for fourth, one stroke out of the playoff.[4]

The tournament was originally scheduled to be finished on Sunday, 19 July: however, bad weather – which included heavy rain and very strong winds – forced play to be suspended twice, both on Friday and Saturday, with the latter having play suspended for nearly most of the playing day. As a result, this was the first Open Championship to finish on a Monday since 1988.[5]

Venue

The 2015 event is the 29th Open Championship played at the Old Course at St Andrews. The most recent was in 2010 when Louis Oosthuizen won his only major title and became the first South African to win an Open Championship at St Andrews.

Second round

Friday and Saturday, 17–18 July 2015

The first group teed-off at 6:32 am BST Friday but heavy rain caused localised flooding and meant that play was suspended at 6.46 am. Play was restarted at 10 am; later tee times being 3 hours 14 minutes later than planned. The tee time for the 52nd and last group was thus delayed from the original 4:13 pm to 7:27 pm. The delay meant that the second round was not completed on Friday and was scheduled to finish on Saturday morning, with 42 players still having to finish their rounds.[22][23][24]

Dustin Johnson was the overnight leader on 10-under-par after 13 holes, a stroke ahead of Danny Willett.[25] The day marked the final Open appearance of Tom Watson.[26]

Play resumed at 7 am on Saturday with the third round due to start at 11 am. However, play was suspended at 7:32 am because a strong wind was moving stationary balls on some of the greens. Because it was a non-dangerous situation, players were allowed to complete the hole they were playing. Dustin Johnson had bogeyed the 14th to move back to 9-under-par, tied for the lead with Willett. After a delay of several hours, it was decided that only the remainder of the second round would be competed on Saturday, with the third round scheduled for Sunday and the fourth round for Monday. Play finally resumed at 6 pm, a 10 and half hour delay.

The leading 80 players made the cut. This includes all players at even par or better.

Final round

Monday, 20 July 2015

Marc Leishman carded a 66 in the final round to have the lead in the clubhouse at −15 while the final pairings were beginning their back nine. Zach Johnson then birdied the 18th to also card a 66 and tie the clubhouse lead with Leishman. The second to last group of the round were Jason Day and Jordan Spieth. Day and Spieth both headed to the par-4 16th at −14, one shot back of Leishman and Johnson. Spieth hit a difficult putt to birdie to get to -15, while Day parred. Then on the par-4 17th, also known as the "road hole," an errant approach shot by Spieth ended with him carding a bogey to fall back to −14. Day was unable to convert a difficult birdie putt and remained at −14 as well. Spieth then hit his approach shot on the 18th into the "valley of sin" in front of the green, and almost holed a chip for birdie, but ended with a par to end his Open Championship at −14. Day was left with a 15-foot birdie putt to get into the playoff, but could not convert and also ended at -14.

The final pairing was Louis Oosthuizen and amateur Paul Dunne. In his final round, Dunne was unable to gain any traction and quickly fell out of contention. Oosthuizen played a solid round of golf, and headed into the 18th needing a birdie to get into the playoff with Leishman and Johnson. His approach shot left him with a 10-foot putt which he sunk for birdie to get into the playoff. The Open Championship's rules dictated there would be a four-hole aggregate score playoff between Johnson, Leishman, and Oosthuizen. Johnson took the early lead on the 1st and never looked back.[29][30] The win was Johnson's second major championship victory after also winning the 2007 Masters Tournament.[31]
