AP outlines Royal Troon for the 133rd Open with hole by hole details. It notes wind effects bunkers and hazards on Nos 1 through 18 including the Postage Stamp No 8 and the 600 yard No 6 first 600+ yard opening.
At Royal Troon the Open feels open with Ernie Els favored at 7-1 and Tiger Woods seen as vulnerable. Woods’ dominance is questioned as Els, Mickelson, Goosen and Bjorn weigh chances while Goosen eyes another U.S. Open crown and the field aims to topple the world No. 1.
At Royal Troon the front nine offers a gentler path while the back nine fights the Irish Sea wind. Tiger Woods hones a practice round as Mark Calcavecchia and others note the Jekyll and Hyde layout that could decide the British Open.
Course Royal Troon 7175 yards par 71. Purse 7.44 million dollars with a 1.338 million winner’s share. TV coverage by TNT and ABC. Noted past winners: Curtis, Ouimet, Woods’ drought since 2002, and Troon opens with Americans holding last five wins. Goosen arrives on two straight titles in the U.S. Open and European Open.
