Bjorn to Make Open Return

By Philip Oliver on Tue, 12/07.2011

Thomas Bjorn, twice runner-up in the Open Championship, has been given the opportunity to make amends for his now-famous collapse towards the end of the British Open in 2003. The Dane, who has not enjoyed any success in the Majors since his second place tie in the PGA Championship in 2005, has been added to Group 6 of the Open, after Fijian seed, Vijay Singh, withdrew from the contest.

Singh became the sixth player to pull out of the Open, after Woods, Levet, Clark, Toms, and Jones. Those following the
British Open golf betting won't be expecting the replacements to make much of an impact.

Bjorn, perhaps unfairly, is rarely mentioned without at least some reference to his Open defeat in 2003. The 40-year-old handed the Claret Jug to debutant Ben Curtis after taking three shots to escape a bunker at the 16th hole. The incident has been likened to the experience of Jean Van de Velde at the British Open in 1999, in which the Frenchman threw away a three-shot lead in spectacular fashion.

Even today, the most popular images of Van de Velde depict the then-33-year-old's quest to find his ball in shin-deep water, or in the rough around the Carnoustie course.

Speaking of his blunder at the 16th in 2003, Bjorn said, "I just tried to erase it from my memory. You really have a problem if you live eight years in the past. I won't relive what happened". Bjorn rarely speaks of the 2003 Open, according to the eventual winner, Ben Curtis. The Dane and the American have both said that they will 'play what's in front of them', rather than focussing on victory above all else. Those placing a
Betfair bet on golf won't be expecting great things from the players.

Bjorn will tee-off at 07:25 on Thursday morning, alongside Simon Dyson and Gary Woodland. Curtis will begin at 08:58, joining Paul Casey and Aaron Baddeley in Group 14.
