  • For the first time in its 128-year history, The Open would finish on a Monday, due to torrential rain that washed out play on Saturday, and it saw one of the great duels in the event's history.
    Seve Ballesteros won for the second time at Royal Lytham & St Annes, and the third time in all, but only after a thrilling final-round of 65 to beat Nick Price by two strokes.
    Price had led by two from the Spaniard and defending Champion Golfer Nick Faldo, with all three playing in the same group.
    All of them birdied the sixth but when the other two eagled the seventh and Faldo only parred, the Englishman drifted out of contention, finishing with a 71 in third place, six behind the winner. Price played the six holes from the sixth to the 11th in four-under but went from one ahead to one behind as Ballesteros had played them in six under.

    I love how perfectly these Offical films capture the eras they were in, the intro here is so 80’s and the Jack Nicklaus 1970 Offical film has that classic 70’s era funk music and cut shots. Love it

    Seve’s 3 opens are probably the best 3 opens I’ve seen.

    There will never be another Seve. For those of us lucky enough to have been able to watch him in his prime will never forget how truly great he was. RIP, great man!

      In his prime before the hand & back injuries kicked in he played golf on a level that surpassed any golfer that ever played the game. Pure genius!

    Only God can know how many times I have watched this video, my mom bought this video in VHS tape when I was 10 years old, and honestly, I could watch this video as many time as hours has a day. This video has a great power, inspiration and motivation for any golfer.

      You need to get out more if this is the highlight of your life. Absolutely pathetic.

      I was there as a local 14 year old. Sat in the 18th grandstand all day to see the tournament conclude.
      Will never forget Seve’s chip that sealed it for him.
      Such a privilege to see him play

    On a Monday in July I headed the 40 miles to Lytham to watch the delayed final round. A stella battle between Price, Faldo and of course the eventual winner Seve. A great spectacle and one of the most memorable days' sport I got to see in person. RIP Seve, the greatest.

      On his day he was the greatest golfer ever. Pure genius!
      It was exactly like the commentator said. An unbelievable display of golfing virtuosity.

    Thank you for posting this R&A. I’ve played golf for 33 years and this is the tournament that ignited my passion for the game. The reason? Seve. His chip on 18 was mesmerising; I was hooked at that point and have never looked back. Seve, my hero. RIP 💙

    What a match on the final day between Seve & Price! An incredible display of putting by Ballesteros. You have to feel for Nick Price. But at least he can take solace in knowing he was beaten by an all-time great. Love watching these old Open tournaments back!

    I thought Seve was great but I was always a Faldo fan. I always like to see an English player the best in the world. Which Faldo was for a few years.

  • @Hanamy7777
    @Hanamy7777 4 місяці тому +1

    His brilliance, his flamboyance, his intensity so much missed on tour these days. All modern players are so boring in comparison. Or maybe it's the PC world we live in. Can't imagine Seve being woke. He knew what a woman was.
