The 115th Championship from the Ailsa Course, Turnberry In 1977 a historic battle between two golfing giants was fought out - TOM WATSON and JACK NICKLAUS matched stroke for stroke over the final 36 holes of The Open championship at Turnberry. Watson won with a birdie at the last hole to complete the second of his five Open victories. Both players return today, and are joined by 152 others hoping to lift the most famous trophy in the game.
SANDY LYLE of Scotland is the defending champion, leading a European challenge which has many potential winners - none more so than
SEVERIANO BALLESTEROS , twice victor; BERNHARD LANGER of West Germany; and leader of the order of merit, HOWARD CLARK.
