Open Moments: The Final Round | Jack Nicklaus | 134th Open Championship

It was an emotional day for the crowds at The Open at St Andrews in 2005 as golfing legend Jack Nicklaus teed off for the final time at The Open Championship.

The 18-time major winner had been victorious at three Open Championships, in 1966, 1970 and 1978. At 65 years old the American known affectionately as ‘The Golden Bear’ was making his 38th Open appearance.

He played alongside Luke Donald and Tom Watson in the opening rounds, with the spectators watching to see as much of Nicklaus as they could before he bid farewell to major tournaments.

Here is Jack Nicklaus’ final final round at The Open.
