The Open Championship Leaderboard Scraper

Scrape the official The Open Championship leaderboard, tee times, and player data from theopen.com.

Returns real-time (during the tournament) or final (post-event) player standings with round-by-round scores, to-par values, tee-time groups, and player country data. Sourced from theopen.com's live scoring API — no unofficial feeds.
