It was apt that it mirrored the famous ‘Duel in the Sun’ between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus back in 1977, which took place just down the coast at Turnberry.

What a legend Beef is
-
The best round of golf I’ve ever seen, usually if you have that score in a major, your a mile in front, Phil and Henrik were simply out of this world.
-
I’ve never seen Phil play any better and somehow he came in 2nd.... What a tournament!
-
only 88k views? Tremendous editing, brilliant storytelling.
-
Years later and I can still watch this once a month! It's one of the best Sundays in golf history!
-
This is the best final round played by the final group ever! Henrik Stenson hits the ball like an animal! His swing is so simple and so repeatable and to beat a true legend like Phil Mickelson makes this win for Henrik that much more special. A 63 in the final round of the Open, Wow!
-
Best round of golf, possible ever? Could not take my eyes of it for one second.
-
Back to watch this. Even though an American, I was so happy to see Henrik win his major.
-
The best final round of golf i have seen in my lifetime and possibly will ever see !!
-
The stuff of legends. Might be Henriks only major but one nobody will ever forget
-
when I saw this on TV, it made me want to try golf, and now I love it
-
That final round is up there with the greatest moment/matches in sporting history! The intensity mustve been unreal!
-
I wish Phil could have stolen this one from Henrik, but MY GOODNESS! What fantastic golf from both of them! Give Stenson all the credit in the world for an AMAZING final round. The fans won this year! I can't remember ever enjoying watching a final round as awesome as this...... Even though I was cheering for Mickelson 😎 Truly amazing
-
Had this been a Hollywood production, H. Stenson would have awakened from the greatest golf dream ever---and as reality it has an even greater surrealism. The World watched the greatest golf story ever told !
-
This was better than the duel in the sun. Two golfing greats playing as close to perfection as it gets.
-
best final round ever....by so far ...if this was woods or nicklaus...we would never hear the end of it...henrik stenson can make claim to the best round of golf in history ...and it probably is...as it was the last round at the open
-
I've been a fanatic follower of Henrik since he was a kid and knowing what adversity he's been through ....This still brings tears to my eyes . One of the best displays of golf I've ever witnessed .
-
Did you notice how Stensons wife gives Phill a hug before she embraces her husband? A small detail but such a great gesture, perfectly in line with the sportsmanship that the players them selves expressed.
-
Henrik put on an absolute clinic with that 3 metal all day, the way he cracked that club on and off the tee is top top class👌👌
-
Gotta love them 2 guys. The Open and The US Masters are my 2 favourite majors to watch, it’s makes you feel what a beautiful game we play.
