...grieving father hoped would finally crumble when President Kim Dae Jung set up a presidential commission to investigate suspicious deaths under Korea's authoritarian regimes. Like similar panels set up in post-apartheid South Africa and post-junta Argentina, the commission was supposed to set the record straight and heal the wounds of the past. From Park Chung Hee's coup in 1961 until the transition to democracy in the early 1990s, South Korea's authoritarian governments regularly violated human rights in the name of protecting South Korea from the threat of the communist North.

"That's what hurts, not how it happened." There's no better place for Torrance to heal the wound than the Belfry, where, in 1985, he sank the putt that brought the trophy back to Europe for the first time in 28 years. And for players like Westwood, who have spent much of 2002 in the rough, a victory in golf's biggest event would mean even...
