Has a major ever been won by someone from the first group out on the Thursday morning??? I'm struggling to recall anyone who has - can anyone out there recall such a feat???

Are you after the ultimate piece of Golf trivia?

I know the answer b.t.w. but if I tell you, I'll have to....

Can't think of any but wouldn't like to say. Its not beyond the realms of possibility. Go out first and post and ok score. Out PM on day two and make the cut with ease. Play your way into the top 6-10 on moving day and then a lst day charge.

No chance.

I'd walk a fairway for this smile though.

I am sure Seve was out very early on thursday 1988 but it may not have been first group. Nothing else leaps out at me

Thomson?

You da' man.

so the story goes.....asked/got put out first group and won 72 holes later (something to do with travelling from Aus' which was rare in the fifties).
