1984 Open Championship

Old Course in St Andrews

BBC coverage of round three with fantastic commentary.

Part 2/3

The ever present Tom Watson cruises up the leaderboard with another fantastic driving and iron display (although he definitely looks a little uneasy with his putter). Tom would eventually finish tied for the lead at the end of the day alongside Ian Baker-Finch.

Bernhard Langer also shows his early promise with a superb all round display and a reminder as to how long he’s been playing top class competitive golf.

Videos of rounds 1 & 2 can be seen on previous posts.
