Pairings and tee times for the third round of The 153rd Open, held at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

World No 1 and halfway leader Scottie Scheffler has been paired with England's Matthew Fitzpatrick as he looks to secure his fourth major title and second of the year, after the PGA Championship in May.

Both Scheffler and Fitzpatrick - who won the 2022 US Open - carded eight birdies during Friday's second round, with Scheffler opening up a one-shot lead over Fitzpatrick after shooting a seven-under 64.
