Unhappy Troon return for Weiskopf

Tom Weiskopf, the 61-year-old who won the 1973 British Open at Royal Troon, began what will be the last competitive event of his life with a quadruple bogey eight today.

The American needed four attempts to get out of a greenside bunker, a trap he described later as “perfectly-designed – just big enough for an angry man with a club”.
