These final round uploads are absolutely superb, thank you very much for sharing this great golf history
The fact he didn’t pick up the game until 21 and won a major is insane.
Larry had 10 Tour wins 3 Majors and 19 champions tour wins !
Great video, but 'The' Open, is the original…not The US Open, so please…get it right.
Two contenders who didn’t start playing golf until their 20s, and one of them actually wins it. Incredible.
Thank you , USGA – this is a treasure for those who love the game… truly gold to be savored… a real tough Oakmont, Seve & Watson paired & Nelson at his best… great coverage and all those other greats…
