- Defending The Open Championship is an achievement that few players have achieved over the past 100 years - and winning the Claret Jug doesn't guarantee a good performance in the following year's Championship.
In 1992, Sir Nick Faldo won his third Open title. A year later Faldo arrived at Royal St George's for The 122nd Open in a bid to regain the title.
The Englishman battled to get himself within touching distance of winning a fourth Open but was narrowly beaten by eventual champion Greg Norman.
These are the best moments from Sir Nick's spirited title defence from 1993.

Where would you place Sir Nick Faldo on a list of best Open Champions of all-time?
Pretty high - behind Watson, Nicklaus, Seve, Woods and Palmer. Never saw Palmer so he’s a nostalgia pick for making the Open the worldwide event it is.
What a guy! Loved to see the relationship he had with his caddy as well!
Such a competitor ...
Loving this comp as missed the early rounds but could be edited round by round
Correct. The editing, or complete lack of, jumps between all rounds and is incoherent in presenting SNF's '93 campaign. No surprise the Open video makers took short cuts, event though IMG video is compiled round by round.
And langer was close as well
Interesting how the melts at the R&A who put these rushed and jumbled compilations together remove critical comments. Sequence the clips so the shots make sense; shouldn't be hard as IMG has the videos logged according to rounds. Just requires effort and thought...
No power swing here more like sloppy slow smooth swing
SNF's swing had virtually no wasted motion; it was highly efficient, which his prime record is a testament to. His driver swing speed was 110/112mph, he was as long as the majority of his competitors in that era.
With equipment back then power was less impactful…..precision was where it was at…. And Faldo was as good as it gets
@@andyw2001 excuse me ☝️. I have played golf since 1978 and when it comes to equipment the irons are the same and the swing speed you put on a wooden driver is like holding a modern spoon in your hand if not smaller so no swingspeed was possible cause the head was a lot smaller. What has changed is the philosophy of golf not the possibility of hitting with higher swing speed. Just look at him! That’s why he has not played in 20 years his game is out of touch!
@@denmark39 not sure if you are saying equipment has or hasn’t progressed? If you are suggesting modern equipment hasn’t influenced the way the game is played now then we can respectfully agree to disagree
