Three years after finishing runner-up as a dashing 19-year-old at Birkdale, Seve Ballesteros won the first of three Open titles, and of a pair of victories at Royal Lytham & St Annes, in 1979.
He defied those who thought he was too wild to win a major. His big-hitting could be wayward but his magical short game was more than capable of getting him out of his frequent scrapes.

What a great player, Seve was! For a time, arguably the best ever. I started playing golf back in ‘79, and of course, I have been a fan of Seve’s ever since. RIP, great man. Golf will never be the same without you.

This is great. Not only for the golf and watching Seve, but also for the history and watching the people in the crowd from that time.

I used to watch the golf on TV with my dad when I was a boy. This was the first one that I remember. It captures the event, but not all of the moments. Seve was jogging down the fairways to get to his ball. It was soooo exciting. I was a Seve fan from that day onwards. I respect all the great players and winners of The Open, but Seve will always be the best in my eye.

Imagine a 22 year old winning the open in this style today.

Wish we had every shot, or the full final round coverage, or extended highlights of all of seve’s open wins like they have done with others.

He was also a wonderful person in real life. I was fortunate to be around him.

If you were born in 1979... we just watched this for the same reason.

How times have changed. The old fuddy duddy at the end separating Seve from his emotional brothers.

That pompous official at the end breaking up Seve and his brothers embracing his victory. There is always one who thinks he’s more important 🤦‍♂️

Yep, I noticed that stuffy tosser at the end.

First prize 15000 thousand pounds, more realistic days, than the money grabbing circus of today when even average players can make millions.
