ST. ANDREWS, Scotland – Dustin Johnson survived the longest round and 40 mph gusts with one last birdie for a 3-under 69 and a one-shot lead in the Open Championship.
The morning wind was so strong it blew golf balls on the green and led to a delay of nearly 10 hours. It forced the first Monday finish in the Open Championship in 27 years.
Johnson, coming off a crushing loss at the U.S. Open, was at 10-under 134.
Danny Willett got the day off and was one shot behind. He finished his 69 on Friday.
