This print takes us back to the iconic British Open Golf Championships of 1976, held at the prestigious Royal Birkdale Golf Club. The image captures the essence of the tournament on a sunny day, specifically July 10th, as renowned golfer Seve Ballesteros strides confidently across the course. However, it is not just Ballesteros who steals our attention in this picture. Standing beside him, wearing a hat, is Maurice Flitcroft from Barrow – an amateur golfer with an audacious streak. Maurice cunningly posed as a professional golfer during this event and remarkably secured a place in the qualifying round of the championships. Unfortunately for Maurice, his true abilities were soon exposed when he carded an astonishing 49 over par (121), marking it as one of the worst scores in tournament history. Despite his hoaxer status being revealed, Maurice's audacity left an indelible mark on golfing folklore. Preserved by Ronald Hicklin through Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot encapsulates both triumph and folly within one frame. It serves as a reminder that even amidst grandeur and skillful competition like that witnessed at Royal Birkdale Golf Club in 1976, there are moments where human nature can surprise us all - sometimes with remarkable feats or unexpected deceptions.
