The 147TH Open Annual tells the story of a dramatic Championship at Carnoustie in which Italy’s Francesco Molinari played sublime golf to defeat some of the game’s biggest stars including Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Tiger Woods and defending champion Jordan Spieth. While former champion Woods grabbed the lead on the final day, only Molinari could cope with the fearsome, baked-out links as he won by two strokes.
