The main photo above shows Thomas Bjorn on the final green musing
on what may have been after four dropped shots on holes 15,16 and
17 had seen the 2003 Open Chamionship slip through his fingers.
Agonisingly for Thomas he was also penalised two shots for
grounding his club in a bunker on the 17th hole of the opening
round. The two other pictures were taken during the final round.
