Steve Stricker withdrew from the BMW Championship on Friday because of weakness in his left arm that first began to bother him nine months ago.

Steve Stricker opened with a record-tying 7-under 63, Tiger Woods finished with a 7-over 77, and Rory McIlroy was stuck in the middle at even par after injuring his wrist at the PGA Championship on Thursday.

Steve Stricker can appreciate better than most how the British Open is unlike any other major.

Steve Stricker stood in the bunker left of the first fairway, eyed his ball in the rough on the edge of the trap, then looked at the flag 122 yards away.
