Under European Tour rules, if less than half of the players had finished their rounds, the scores for that day were discarded. Since no player had finished, all the scores from Saturday were scrapped. Sunday was briefly scheduled for 36 holes, but due to the flooding, it was decided the course could not be readied in time for the early morning tee times. The third round was played on Sunday and the fourth on Monday, the first time in history the Open's final round finished on a Monday.https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=LDozAAAAIBAJ&sjid=rOEDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3178%2C4052894 Eugene Register-Guard Rain washes out play at third round of British Open Bonk Thomas (Los Angeles Times) 17 July 1988 1Fhttps://news.google.com/newspapers?id=5ltQAAAAIBAJ&sjid=kw4EAAAAIBAJ&pg=3102%2C4491474 Toledo Blade Associated Press British Open rain burns Green 17 July 1988 D1https://www.theguardian.com/sport/that-1980s-sports-blog/2015/jul/16/the-open-seve-ballesteros-major-faldo-couples-price How Seve Ballesteros won his last major championship at the Open in 1988 16 July 2015 The Guardian Steven Pye 20 October 2015 Course layout Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club Hole123456789Out101112131415161718InTotal Yards2064374573932124905493941643,3023345421983424454633574624123,5556,857Par344435543354534444443671 Source:http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=2001/tournamentid=2001044/news/newsid=105680.html#focus+130th+open+championship European Tour Focus on the 130th Open Championship Platts Mitchell 11 July 2011 29 June 2012 Previous lengths of the course for The Open Championship (since 1950): 1979: 6822 yd 1974: 6822 yd 1969: 6848 yd 1963: 6757 yd 1958: 6635 yd 1952: 6657 yd Round summaries First round Thursday, 14 July 1988 PlacePlayerScoreTo par1 ESP Seve Ballesteros67−4T2 USA Brad Faxon69−2 AUS Wayne GradyT4 USA Don Pooley70−1 ZWE Nick Price AUS Noel Ratcliffe AUS Peter SeniorT8 USA Andy Bean71E NZL Bob Charles ENG Howard Clark ENG Nick Faldo ZAF 1982 David Frost USA Jay Haas ENG Mark James USA Gary Koch ENG David J.
