This was the Open when everything seemed to happen. 00:00:26.880 - 00:00:30.851
On the second day, the boy Ballesteros was now six under par. 00:00:46.160 - 00:00:50.484
And led outright by two strokes. 00:00:50.640 - 00:00:53.007
But, inevitably, the power of world golf had begun to close in. 00:00:58.640 - 00:01:03.521
Gary Player. 00:01:03.680 - 00:01:05.330
Johnny Miller. 00:01:05.480 - 00:01:07.084
Jack Nicklaus. 00:01:07.240 - 00:01:08.765
Severiano Ballesteros, only nineteen. 00:01:10.840 - 00:01:14.811
Everyone enjoying him 00:01:18.120 - 00:01:19.531
and waiting for him to vanish from the leaderboard. 00:01:19.720 - 00:01:23.122
I remember watching this 'boy'. 00:01:23.880 - 00:01:27.009
I watched the way that he did things and it was a little bit unique. 00:01:27.160 - 00:01:32.200
Here was this young guy flashing a ball, 00:01:34.520 - 00:01:37.285
playing great recoveries and holing the putts 00:01:37.440 - 00:01:40.205
"This is a very special young man." 00:01:40.360 - 00:01:44.524
We all thought, who the devil is this young matador of the links? 00:01:45.640 - 00:01:50.680
Straight in the middle. 00:01:50.880 - 00:01:52.882
And of course his story was quite extraordinary. 00:01:53.040 - 00:01:56.886
My love was always playing golf. 00:02:18.800 - 00:02:21.371
Apart from golf, nothing existed for me. 00:02:22.800 - 00:02:25.531
Nothing. 00:02:26.320 - 00:02:27.845
