Great footage... but I have to take issue with the title - it's not the British Open.. It is THE Open..
-
the greatest match in a championship, played by two golfers in their peak

whats the theme song's name!?

If Tiger went back to 1977, it would be more like Threesome in the sun, than Trio!

Thanks a ton for posting this video! Amazing what they were able to do with the equipment back then!

Probably. Tiger did MC last month at Turnberry. He is able to recover from errant tee shots at most courses, last month, he could not.
Watson hit his drives about 15 yards further in '09 than in '77. And the course was about 400 yards longer in 09.

I wonder if Tiger had been in his prime back in 77 if he would have outgunned Watson and Nicklaus. Have only seen brief clips of this historic championship but I suspect if Tiger was sent in a time machine back to 1977 he would make it a Trio in the Sun.
One of the greatest golfing duals of all time,
if not THE greatest.

Golf, played in the way it was designed to be played.
