The stage was set for McIlroy to end his eight-year drought in the majors and cap off a week of celebration at the home of golf in the 150th Open. Instead, Smith stole the show by running off five straight birdies to start the back nine. His eight-under-par 64 was the lowest final round by a champion in the 30 Open editions at St Andrews.
