Stenson v Mickelson | The Open Official Film 2016

Спорт

Henrik Stenson wins the Open Championship at Royal Troon in a battle with Mickelson over the Ayrshire links in one of the most historic head-to-heads in the history of The Open.
It was apt that it mirrored the famous ‘Duel in the Sun’ between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus back in 1977, which took place just down the coast at Turnberry.

    The best round of golf I’ve ever seen, usually if you have that score in a major, your a mile in front, Phil and Henrik were simply out of this world.

    ... this type of competition exemplifies what golf is ... their unyielding wills to overcome each other & the course ... they both deserved to win but beneath the game was the incredible respect for each other ... Emile Griffith defined winning by saying "winning is imposing your will on your opponent(s)"- Henrik & Phil displayed this for entire round ... leads one to believe Henriks excellence in winning would not have been accomplished without the excellence of Phil ... perhaps "winning" is not the only ultimate prize but instead it is the level of competition that defined that win !!!

    "perhaps "winning" is not the only ultimate prize but instead it is the level of competition that defined that win" - Of course, there is no fun in winning if it's a walkover from hole 1. Winning tastes better when it was fought hard against someone who didn't gave up until the 25th hour.

    What’s amazing is Phil, now a 6 time Major Champion, has shot -14 at the Masters in 2015, -15 at the PGA in 2014, -17 at The Open in 2017 and didn’t win any of them. Those scores will win at those tournaments 99% of the time. I do think it speaks to his popularity. He has his fair share of wins but also has been in some legendary battles where he doesn’t always come out on top but is always the showman. And probably most importantly, when he doesn’t win, he always loses with total class. For 30+yrs Phil has shown tremendous sportsmanship. There aren’t many athletes that you can point to and say “act like that guy” because they’re all human and everyone makes mistakes and fumbles from time to time. But that’s one thing I truly admire about Phil. You can point to him and say that’s how a professional should act. Athletes aren’t role models but Phil is an exception to that rule.

First 9 downwind, 34, liked that then the back 9 into the wind, started 6,6,5,5...for 43, 9; shots worse, never done that before. So another open Links crossed of the list...
