HOW WE GOT HERE
------------------------------------------------------------
British grit. Kevin Kisner has a reputation as a dogged competitor (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/2018-british-open-gritty-and-determined-kevin-kisner-stands-tall-early/) on Tour and took the overnight lead thanks to a 5-under 66 Thursday morning that no one could came close to matching in the afternoon.
Links return. Tiger Woods received a warm welcome in his first British Open round since 2015, and he showed plenty of promise (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/2018-british-open-tiger-woods-shows-promising-signs-in-round-1/) .
Read all about it. Geoff Shackelford reports on the controversial greens-reading books (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/usga-ra-have-agreed-to-severely-restrict-green-reading-books/) and an impending ban of sorts that will be a big talking point among players.
Spieth slips. Defending champ Jordan Spieth looked to be off and running in Round 1 before a finishing stretch he'd like to forget (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/british-open-mental-mistakes-down-stretch-costly-for-jordan-spieth/) . He did, however, hit a putt to remember.


** LASTING IMAGE
------------------------------------------------------------
Young guns. Justin Thomas is sporting a new-look beard this week. Let's just say it worked out very well Thursday (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/2018-british-open-justin-thomas-rock-solid-in-round-1-at-carnoustie/) and no so well today (ahem, live blog (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/20/british-open-live-blog-round-2/) ).


** COMPLETE COVERAGE
------------------------------------------------------------
Running late. ​No one had a more difficult time getting to Carnoustie (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/jhonattan-vegas-has-visa-issues-barely-makes-british-open-tee-time/) than Jhonattan Vegas.
Left out. ​Phil Mickelson is a bit off pace (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/2018-british-open-phil-mickelson-now-more-major-sideshow-than-major-contender/) , but that's been the norm at recent major championships.
Sounding off. ​Rory McIlroy returned fire Thursday after some candid comments (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/2018-british-open-mcilroy-says-harmon-doesnt-know-whats-in-my-head/) from Butch Harmon.
Highlight reel. ​Tiger Woods had his share of moments (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/highlights-from-tiger-woods-opening-71-at-british-open/) during a late Round 1 pairing.
Home course advantage. ​Carnoustie member Matthew Southgate took advantage of his familiar surroundings (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/19/british-open-carnoustie-member-matthew-southgate-in-contention/) Thursday.
