SOUTHPORT, England (Reuters) - China's Li Haotong soared up the British Open leaderboard with a superb last-round 63 on Sunday and at one stage looked to have a chance of becoming the second Asian man to win a major title.

When leader Jordan Spieth dropped three shots early in his round, Li was only two behind but the American fought back to win the title and the 21-year-old world number 107 ended up third, three strokes behind runner-up Matt Kuchar.
