Nick Faldo wins at Muirfield | The Open Official Film 1992

I think a lot of people forget how truly great a player Nick Faldo really was. In terms of major championship success, he was the best in what might have been the most competitive era professional golf has ever experienced, because from after when Tom Watson cooled down in the mid-1980s to early-to-mid 90s (just before Tiger, Phil, and Ernie Els became the sport's best), nobody dominated the sport, but one player often ran into a great 2-4 year run and took full advantage of it, whether it was Seve, Sandy Lyle, Payne Stewart, Nick Price, Nick Faldo, Greg Norman, or Steve Elkington. When they got hot, they usually took advantage of the run they got on. But Faldo took down six major titles and could have won three or four more (the 1988 and 1990 U.S. Opens certainly come to mind).

Love Faldo, one of the most beautiful swings of all time

Man, Jon Cook really let it slip through his grasp! But I suppose holding your nerve under pressure. Is what separates the good golfers from the greats. And Sir Nick Faldo certainly is that!💯 What a grinder. Gave every shot 100% focus. Love watching back these old Open Championships!

Very enjoyable video. Would've been the icing on the cake if it showed the "I'd like to thank certain members of the press from the heart of my bottom" speech at the end and then Faldo singing "I did it my way".

Such an iconic champion 👏

This video has been available for two decades. When will you release the final round? It hasn't been seen since the event and was the most tense final round of the decade and has gone down in major history for Faldo's incredible comeback.

I was at this Open. All I remember was the last 5 holes for Faldo/Cook being such a rollercoaster.

I remember reading an artile on Golf Digest years ago with Leadbetter saying his swing was at his best at that time.

I wonder how long we’ll have to wait to see another English man take the coveted Open championship

Thanks for the upload. Why is the narration only in the left speaker? Odd.

so talented, so great

We can said, with conviction, that Azinger finishing bogey-bogey kind of gave the 87 open to Faldo, that Faldo was two feet away (1 putt) from losing the 1989 masters, that John Cook allowed him to grind out the 92 Open and that Norman opened the door BIG TIME for Faldo to steal the 96 Masters.

I came to see Sir Nick Faldo and apparently so did everyone else! Is this the round where he switches Putter for the last round & comes from like 5 back?

Also if it was written: Faldo wins. It was thrilling to see (I was not sure. Faldo?). I’m sure that this the 4th day was a nightmare during a day for Faldo, until Claret Jug.

where is the commentary

We now need 1988

Can we get 2013 next

rad

Still never understood why hitting into the stands is not the same as hitting into gorse etc.... Why not a 1 stroke penalty and not a free drop. They put the stands far enough away. Sometimes the shots are so errant, yet no penalty.

John cook threw this one away unfortunately. Missed birdie put and bogie on last hole.
