It's a chilly, rainy Round 1 at the Women's British Open today in Southport, England, on the links of Royal Birkdale. Players are bundled up in layers, in jackets, and in rain pants, wearing ear muffs. And, as some of those players pointed out, today was supposed to be the day with the best weather.
Scores, not surprisingly, are high. You can follow the action at the Women's British Open live leaderboard.
Royal Birkdale is one of the best seaside links in Britain, part of the British Open rota. Check out the Royal Birkdale photo gallery.

This week, the players can definitely see the forest of trees that tightly line Sahalee Country Club in Washington state. It's a course whose majestic trees one led Colin Montgomerie to...

Fans aren't supposed to take cell phones inside the gates at PGA Tour events, nor at most other professional golf tournaments.
But the PGA Tour's Wyndham Championship, calling itself "the guinea pig tournament," is changing that policy this year. Tournament officials announced that cell phones will be allowed at the tourney, so long as fans who have them keep them on silent and use them only in designated areas around the course.
