...Nicklaus griped about the greens: "Bumpy, too slow, the worst I've ever seen for a British Open." Player's complaint was a stiff neck, the consequence of trying to do calisthenics in his bathtub. "I can only manage half a backswing," he groaned. Peter Thomson kept quiet-mostly because he had never felt better in his life. For four years, he had been plagued by chronic hay fever, but Royal Birkdale's sea breeze was just the thing for his sniffles...

A picturesque little village that suggests New England more than North Carolina, it has for 70 years attracted a quiet, middle-aged-to-elderly clientele, which though often enormously rich is not particularly interested in capitalized society or bright lights. Next to golf, horses are the primary interest of most visitors. The riding facilities are of top quality, and gymkhanas in horsemanship are held regularly...
