280 Will Be Enough To Win At Open, Palmer Predicts
The 50th anniversary Open at Brookline opens with Arnold Palmer postulating a 280 total as enough to win. Palmer, fresh from Thunderbird Classic, criticizes blind holes on the Country Club course while noting it favors accuracy. Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Julius Boros and Phil Rodgers loom as contenders as 150 players begin four rounds. Francis Ouimet will tee off the opening round to mark golf’s U S growth since 1913.
