Stewart Cink won his first major championship at the 2009 British Open, but it was the man who finished second that stole all the headlines.
A 59 year old Tom Watson was an 8-foot par putt away from winning and becoming the oldest champion of a major in history. When the putt went to the right, the wind went out of the Watson sails and Cink won by six shots in the four-hole playoff.
Tiger Woods made news early in the tournament by missing the cut.
