1931 Open Championship at Carnoustie Pamphlet - Tommy Armour Win
Tommy Armour was a popular winner when Carnoustie staged its first Open Championship back in 1931. Armour, who was born in Edinburgh in 1896, but who emigrated to America in the 1920's, produced rounds of 73, 75, 77, and 71 to finish one shot ahead of Argentina's Jose Jurado and two in front of England's Percy Aliss and America's Gene Sarazen. Nicknamed the "Silver Scot", Armour must have tried to follow his famed advice in conquering Carnoustie, "Take no sixes, no double bogeys, and remember there are lots of ways to make four." This pamphlet was distributed by the city of Carnoustie and comes in stunningly excellent condition, the soft covers and spine showing no blemishes.
