Faldo/norman
“Greg Norman sprinted clear of the field early in the 60th Masters and for two days backed up his record start. But by the time he reached the 5th hole on Sunday there were signs he was beginning to flag. It was Nick Faldo who would put in the sprint finish. ‘Everyone knows the tape is at the end of the 72 holes,’ said the Englishman.
Over the last four decades, scoring a 63 in a major has been some help in winning a championship, but not that much. At Oak Hill in the 2013 US PGA, Jason Dufner p...roduced the 26th occurrence of a 63 in major championship history but became only the sixth player to go on to win. Johnny Miller was the first to do so, in the final round of the US Open at Oakmont in 1973. He started six strokes off the lead but won by one from John Schlee, by two from Tom Weiskopf and by three from Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player. Three other players have scored a 63 in the final round of a major, but none of them ended up as the champion either.
Miller had been intent on a quick getaway from the tournament but a swift start, with four birdies at the first four holes, put him right into contention.MoreLess
