Well, it was about time: an Italian golfer finally achieved the Claret Jug(as it is known) as the winner of the 2018 British Open, one of Golf's major championships. The title has eluded those professionals from the European 'boot' despite the efforts of many of Italy's best professional golfers.
This young man overcame some of the world's greatest players, including the legendary Tiger Woods, who briefly held the lead on the final round yesterday. The famous windy conditions caused heartbreak and heartache as one after another of golf's best players rose to the top of the leader board only to fall back after contrary winds provided more drama, taking hold of shots and sending them to the fringes of the course at Carnoustie.
Mr. Francesco Molinari, 35, played steady golf and emerged the winner as he sunk a birdie putt on the 18th Hole. The hopes of the many were dashed as he elevated his putter at the end of his round.
Congratulations Mr. Molinari. You have earned a place in Golf's Pantheon. Enjoy the moment.
