The 100th Open, played in fine weather at Royal Birkdale, featured two charismatic players of differing pedigrees.
Lee Trevino won the Claret Jug for the first time and, following triumphs at the U.S. Open and the Canadian Open, completed a unique hat-trick of victories within only four weeks.
He was playing in his third Open. Lu Liang Huan, of Taiwan, had been a professional since 1955 and had played in The Open only once before. Doffing his pork pie hat wherever he went, “Mr Lu”, as he was known, immediately became a crowd favourite.
