between Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player at Dorado Beach, Puerto Rico.
Last December, BBC-2 viewers saw Palmer, Nicklaus, and Player finish all-square in their fifty-four hole series The Big Three in Britain. It was agreed that the prize-money would not be shared but that the Big Three should meet again in a play-off. Now BBC film cameras cover this extra, final round on one of the world's most beautiful courses.
Prize-money: $25,000 for the winner, $15,000 for second, $10,000 for third
