Justin Leonard wins at Royal Troon | The Open Official Film 1997

[@jeremydavidson9194]

The music at 7:54 is the key to making this open film the quintessential open film of all time.

[@richlewis1879]

I absolutely love that Darren Clark got his open in the end

[@garyroberts3859]

What a links...so easy downwind the first 9 ( 34 in 1987) so difficult the back 9 into the wind (43), but very satisfied (4 handicapper from Australia)

Lynx, McGregor...beautiful blades in ‘97

[@KYExtemper]

Leonard always had good game. It's crazy this was his only major. He should've won the PGA in '04.

[@richlewis1879]

I think he was in the van de velde playoff too?

[@KYExtemper]

@@richlewis1879 Yeah. He should've won that year but pressed too hard on 18 because he thought he needed birdie there to have a chance. No one expected Van de Velde to melt down on 18 to the point that it let guys 3 shots back get into a playoff.

[@dancarnahan1919]

Plus I still haven't seen the 2015 video of Zach Johnson winning, when Jordan Speith was trying to and almost did win 3 majors in a row in the same year. That was a damn good Open!!

Incredible putting

Always loved justin Leonard. A down to earth Texan. Class act as well. Unfortunately never really reached his full potential on the tour

[@richlewis1879]

Justin Leonard's putter on that final day was ridiculous.

[@DanielSong39]

Leonard made a lot of putts on the final day

[@richlewis1879]

The Big Bertha Callaway driver shocked the world at the time

Happy 49 th brithday to who I meet Justin learned is left hand golf swing

[@StFidjnr]

can you please upload the 1999 open film

[@golfranda]

Keep an eye out for our uploads over the festive period! 👀

[@thenumberquelve158]

Take a drink every time you hear the word "character" in this one. :3 Really though, Leonard's final round has to rank among the best of all time. It's the Open Championship for starters, and absolutely none of the other chasing pack was making any inroads at all. He not only made inroads, he beat the leading pair by THREE.

[@fredbosanquet9236]

Is that the future Mrs Woods at 53:12?

[@Pulse2AM]

Both of them.

[@ScratchArkkitehti]

Lol nope

[@magnuscroify]

no

[@dancarnahan1919]

I hope one day in the future they have a video of Lee Westwood winning a major. I don't care what major it is but I hope he gets one! Because Lee Westwood always plays well in the majors wether it's the Masters, U.S. Open, Open, or PGA for the longest stretch of years he'd most likely be near the top or at the top of a leaderboard come Sunday. I felt like 2010 Masters was his best shot unfortunately Phil Mickelson just shot better that day. It just goes to show how hard it is to win a major coming down the stretch on a Sunday to feel those nerves and pressure, it's real. I just hope he can close one out here soon even though he's getting up there in age I'm still pulling for him!!

[@dancarnahan1919]

@@hanajinks1044 He played well at the 2008 U.S. Open as well! He just finished one shot back unfortunately for him Rocco and then Tiger birdied the 18th to tie for the win. Which was an awesome playoff Rocco hung in there. But poor Lee. He played well last year and hes still has a couple of shots. 2023 Masters Lee Westwood baby!!

[@JamBar1873]

Narrated by Tom Baker??

[@28russ]

Yep, defo the Dr 🙂

[@EmperorAmun-Ra]

Tigers arrogance had started to show, I guess this is when he started to feel 'entitled'.

[@DanielSong39]

Actually it was there from the start, I think the GQ article was the first clue

[@Mitjitsu]

Nah, he just didn't have the game for links golf back then. St Andrews is favourable to a long hitter, which is why he won there, but the other courses on the rota demand accuracy as well.

[@richlewis1879]

[@28russ]

Tom Baker should narrate everything

I much prefer the complete final round coverage that we've seen from other Opens.

Funny to see the smoothest swing ever (Couples) and one of the ugliest (Leonard) paired in rd 4.

[@DanielSong39]

The ugly swing wins

[@javierheras2327]

​@@DanielSong39 yes indeed. He had a great short game and knew how to minimize errors. Anyway, this Open belonged to Parnevik, he choked.

@@javierheras2327 To be fair Darren Clarke had a very good chance too and he hit it in every direction that final day
