The 115th Championship from the Ailsa Course, Tumberry
Ten former champions begin their second round: SEVE BALLESTEROS
BOB CHARLES , JOHNNY MILLER JACK NICKLAUS
ARNOLD PALMER , GARY PLAYER BILL ROGERS , LEE TREVINO
TOM WATSON and defending champion SANDY LYLE
By the end of the day, some
May miss the cut to 70 players for the final 36 holes, but those who survive play for a £70,000 winner's cheque and vast rewards in sponsorship and endorsements.
Jack Nicklaus comes to
Turnberry as the US Masters Champion at the age of 46, while another 'senior' player, RAY FLOYD (43), brings his newly-won title of US Open Champion.
Will another title go to a veteran, or will the younger brigade win through in the shape of HAL SUTTON or BOB TWAY from the United States, or Britain's SAM TORRANCE or HOWARD CLARK ?
