1999 Carnoustie

Rod Pampling

Carnoustie in 1999 was dubbed Car-nasty due to the toughness of the Angus links, with just one man able to record a score of par-71 on the opening day, Queenslander Rod Pampling.

However, Carnoustie exacted a stinging revenge on the Aussie on day two, when he could only manage an 86 to go from leading The Open to missing the cut.

Scot Paul Lawrie would go on to lift the Claret Jug after winning a play-off against Justin Leonard and Frenchman Jean van de Velde, following his infamous implosion.
