Interesting blend of great Open champions and one-off winners (simultaneously, Open and major titles) at Royal Troon. The 2016 event was the most heart-stopping battle I've witnessed. Sad that both participants have gone astray.
2003-2004 was that sequence of who? when Curtis and Hamilton won, back to back.
Does Troon identify outsiders better than any other, current Open venue?
