The Open
Championship
HARRY CARPENTER at Carnoustie introduces highlights of today's play in the second round of the 104th Open. This year the Course is at 7,065 yards, some 187 yards shorter than when Gary Player won the title here seven years ago, but it still remains one of the toughest courses in the world.

Something in the Air
The city of Swansea is alive with allegation and rumour. A radical magazine is publishing regular ' Corruption Supplements ' and an anonymous leaflet has been circulating in South Wales linking a group of local property developers with members of Swansea Council. ' Grossly defamatory,' say two of the named men insisting that, if allegations against them are to be investigated at all, the job should be done only by the police.
Why so many rumours? Are they facts or smears? Why has Swansea become a place threaded with suspicion - where many make accusations in private but seldom in public? Jack Pizzey and a Man Alive team investigate.
