Great guy, had the privilege of meeting him a couple of times.
One of the longest and straightest of drivers of his generation.
Saw him pitch a ball on the 1st green of Gullane No1 once.
His flaw was his pitching, he was known to putt round bunkers on occasions.
He should have won two Opens especially Muirfield.
Once he ditched Alliss he became a very good golf course designer.
