It was a sunny day in Berlin where I was living at the time in 2016 when I started watching it live. Thought to myself "I'll watch the first couple of holes and then meet with friends, enjoy some sun". I spent the entire afternoon watching these two legends have a go at it and I'm so glad I did. Best session of golf I have ever seen.

You'll never see a pair burn a course to the ground like this again in the final round of a major. Magnificent.

This was my favorite Sunday of any major in my life. So fun to watch these two go back and forth. They were both on fire.

So glad they've put this up. A match for the ages. No loser here.

Except for Mickelson

Tom Watson said this topped his and Nicklaus un 77. I’ve never seen a twosome play a better final in a major! Brilliant.

Legendary. A word often used but this most certainly was.

Henrik is one of the coolest dudes on the course. Has an awesome sense of humor as well. Anyone from Norway/Sweden/Finland seem to be very easy going and tend to listen before speaking. Kimi and Henrik are two of my favorite sports personalities.

I was there that day and followed this group for the full round, best round of golf I have ever seen, televised included, was amazing!

Fantastic golf by two guys at the top of their game. Great to watch.

Love watching Phil. Helps with my left-handed troubleshooter.

I enjoy reLIVing this final round

Probably the 3rd best major anyone has ever played and he still lost by 3. Absolutely insane

What a beautiful experience and what a finish from Henrik 😄

Thank you for uploading this! Was so happy when I saw it in my feed

An absolutely outrageous round of golf from Stenson, -9 in the last 17 holes.

I always think of Phil as having won 6 and a half majors. His play in this tournament was just exceptional. As for Henrik Stenson, not only did he win a major, the highlight of a golfer's career, he beat an All Time Great who was having a career week!

Even more incredible when you consider the fact that the second round took place during atrocious conditions.

This is and was the best golf match in the history of golf ware - Two players went heads up, scoring so low, and a 2 shot swing on the first hole. Long putts win tournaments, and Henricks' career was established as a champion golfer even if he never won a golf event again. It took a life's of energy to win against the best putter and chipper in the world. Amazing. Applauds.

The Duel In The Sun between Watson and Nicklaus in 1977 needs to be uploaded in the near future.

European broadcasters wayyyy better than US

THIS is Greatness. 2 greats peaking on the same Sunday ... That 15th hole putt = Epic.

I remember being gripped to this all afternoon, such a shame sky took coverage of the open so purple not interested in golf won't be able to just stumble across a round like this in future

The last puttttt!!! GOLD!

A very entrertaining final round by two exceptional players, playing at their very best. Huge thanks for this one !!

2:51 that cackle 🤣

Shit, when a bogey free 66 ain’t enough 💀

Absolute stunning golf! shot after shot was not only consistent but brilliant none the less!

Perhaps the most amazing fact was that Stenson and Mickelson were 14 and 11 shots clear, respectively, of solo third.

Stenson was on another level whewww

amazing content

The duel at Troon!

legends. troon too. superb.

Great battle 👍

Legend match

Henrik's putting was simply too good for Mick to have a chance, even though he played incredibly well himself.

Henrik is one of my favourite golf personalities ever. The Iceman!

Poor Phil. Another major that slipped through his fingers. I always wonder what his career numbers would look like if Tiger wasn't in his way.

13:19 look at that backspin

One and done!

Phil is using a binder clip to tighten his cap.

Amazing match. If phils putter has been calibrated with 1cm more in favor I count 5-6 lipouts. Could have easy been in the 50s this round! Sick consisency from stenson tho

Anyone know what putter model Phil is using?

Both are winners no loser here

Stenson is a streak golfer! NOBODY was going to deny him this golf tournament, even Phil Michelson, who is a consistent golfer...What has Stenson done after this win...? Nothing much!

I wish that was how golf came to me. I originally hated golf when my dad forced me at 5, now it's one of the things i am most grateful for towards him

Yes. You're even allowed to snort a line or two.

Bruh why are the camera angles awful??

Lightning in a bottle. Stenson was always good but was NEVER THIS GOOD BEFORE OR AFTER.

Now Phil's got that Saudi money, he can finally afford a cap that fits.

Ugh

So if Mickelson was born on the same day as Old Tom Morris that makes him ....about 203 years old? He's looking well in fairness. The LIV blood money helps

Stroke play matches > match play matches.
