American Jerry Kelly holds his nerve on the 18th to win the Senior British Open‎

Jerry Kelly rose to the challenge on the final hole to win the Senior British Open by two shots Sunday for his third senior major title. The 59-year-old American, who also won the Senior Players in 2020 and 2022, shot a 2-under 68 with four birdies and two bogeys on the Kings course at Gleneagles to finish at 10-under 270. “The senior Claret Jug is the trophy that I’ve wanted as an over-50 golfer other than any other,” Kelly said.
