Fifty-nine, 52 and 49 No, these are not the results described in the front nine on Thursday, various Golfers struggling with the wind, and they are in the age of Tom Watson, Mark O'Meara and Mark Calcavecchia, to the last three Open Champion winners, all of which are claim in 2009 after the opening rounds, that would make you think that in 1998 again.
Watson was the story of the day ahead of schedule, shooting the first round 65 to take the early lead at the Open, of course he made famous in 1977 when he out-dueled Jack Nicklaus for his second five-Claret jugs. O'Meara, who has made two major the same year takaisin'98 with the arm-out to win the Royal Birkdale, opened with 3-under 67, that seven birdies at Turnberry. Calc, which has not been written by a PGA Tour since 2007, when he won the Championship pods O'Meara, tied at 3-under par, and it There are currently only two shots behind Watson.
Fairly so, talk of heading into the British, this week was about two things - Tiger Woods' win a mandatory, this week, or at risk of sportswriters crucified young and old, and Watson Revisiting Duel in the Sun, which ended 32 years ago, the same score he shot on Thursday.

Watson plans to make St. Andrews in 2010, his last Open is a ripe age of 60, to curl my goodbye to one foot to bring the Swilcan Bridge. Right now, Watson seems he has another thing on his mind ... Full NICKL AUS what does the 1998 Masters - is eerily similar to the age 58 Pull the last to win the event that made him famous. Jack closed with a 68-year-end sixth. Watson made him one shot better than par on Thursday.
