Tom Watson vs Jack Nicklaus | Duel in the Sun | Great Final Days

Videos
The Duel in the Sun.

Two of the finest golfers the game has ever seen went toe to toe at the 106th Open Championship in 1977, the first to be held at the Ailsa Course, Turnberry.

Having separated themselves from the rest of the field, American duo Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus, who did battle just months earlier at Augusta, went head to head under clear skies.

In a final day that would be remembered for years to come, would it be major number 15 for the Golden Bear or could then 27-year-old Tom Watson claim his second Claret Jug?

Re-live this Great Final Day from 1977.
