Roar of the Crowd: Sport's Biggest Jackpot

on BBC Two England

The series in which famous sports stars talk about themselves and their sports against the backcloth of their own action.

The American golf tour carries $6 million (£2 1/2 million) prize-money. Its trail is followed by more than 400 players. It is extreme professionalism; a tour of concentration, fatigue, and competitive pressures, unashamedly geared to the dollar. It is where American golfing supremacy is forged. A Roar of the Crowd crew followed the tour recently - and present this report a week before the British Open, in which some of the top Americans will compete

With Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Billy Casper, Lee Trevino, Charlie Sifford, Tony Jacklin, Peter Townsend and, glimpsed in action or leisure, Bruce Devlin, Bob Charles, Gay Brewer, 'Chi-Chi' Rodriguez, Julius Boros, Frank Beard, Kermit Zarley, Doug Sanders, Phil Rodgers, and others
