Golf: the Open

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Live coverage of theopeningday's play in the 123rd
Open golf championship. The event was born in 1860, when just eight golfers competed over the course at Prestwick for a championship belt, won by Willie Park.
This year the championship returns to the beautiful
Turnberry course in western Scotland, which last staged it in 1986. Greg Norman was the winner that year, and this week he returns as the current holder, having beaten Nick Faido by two strokes a year ago at Sandwich. This led to the remark by a BBC
Radio commentator that Norman would be "the toast of Sandwich tonight". Introduced by Steve Rider. Producer Alastair Scott
Executive producer John Shrewsbury
