Summary of 2000 Open Golf Championship Official Film / Tiger Woods, Ernie Els, David Duval, St. Andrews

In a career that continues to pile up highlight after highlight, Tiger Woods accomplished one of his greatest achievements when he followed his 2000 U.S. Open triumph by winning the 2000 British Open, completing the career Grand Slam. This 52-minute video, officially approved by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club, captures Woods's brilliant weekend at the 129th Open Championship, which for the millennium was played at the birthplace of golf, St. Andrews. Accordingly, the weekend was a celebration of the game itself, honoring all those who had previously won the Open at the Old Course, including three-time champion Jack Nicklaus, who makes what is probably his last appearance and bids farewell in a too-brief clip.

Although tournament officials bolstered the Old Course with longer fairways and deeper, steeper bunkers ("toughest I've ever seen," says Nicklaus), Woods takes advantage of the warm, calm weather to post a record score of 19 under par. David Duval challenges on the final day, but disappears from the leader board after an unfortunate encounter with the infamous Road Hole bunker. Ernie Els, Sergio Garcia, and Fred Couples make some brilliant shots, but also miss key putts. On this weekend, like so many other weekends, they simply can't compete with Tiger Woods. --David Horiuchi
