John Daly won the 1995 Open Championship

“I’ve always had the image of The Open being won or lost on this hole.”

James Bledge, Links Manager at @RLGCHoylake, knows how pivotal the new 17th hole could be come Sunday. https://t.co/ggxmxl1Flx

During the 1995 Open Championship at the Old Course in St. Andrews, John Daly won a playoff against Costantino Rocca. Daly won after a thrilling effort on the difficult course.

John Daly, who was trailing Michael Campbell heading into the last round, demonstrated his abilities and resilience by capitalizing on the challenging conditions.

Rocca needed a birdie to trigger a playoff as he entered the final hole. Rocca's second shot ended in a misplaced chip, but he converted a spectacular 60-foot putt to secure the birdie and extend the tournament.

John Daly dominated the playoff, finishing one under par over the four holes, while Rocca struggled after striking into the infamous "Road Hole Bunker" and needed three shots to escape, finishing three over par. This stunning triumph cemented Daly's place in golf history.
