It was the 150th anniversary of the founding of The Open in 1860,[2] and the 28th time The Open was played at St Andrews. Usually branded with the edition of the championship (for example, the previous year’s Open was branded as the “138th Open Championship”), due to the sesquicentennial anniversary, the R&A branded this as the “150th Anniversary Open Championship” rather than “139th Open Championship.” The standard branding returned the following year.Louis Oosthuizen won his only major championship with 272 (\u221216), seven strokes clear of runner-up Lee Westwood. A stroke behind in third were Paul Casey, Rory McIlroy, and Henrik Stenson.[3]St Andrews is considered to be the home of golf, and as such, the current Open Championship rota means that the Old Course plays host to the championship every five years. Given the course’s standing, even more attention is given to The Open whenever it visits the historic links.The previous two Opens at St Andrews, in 2000 and 2005, were both won by Tiger Woods, the first with a record 19-under-par total. The primary change to the course from 2005 was at the par-4 17th hole; a new tee extended the Road Hole to 495 yards (453\u00a0m), an increase of 40 yards (37\u00a0m).[4][5] Although not altered, the measurement angle of the dogleg was revised for hole #7, resulting in a new length of 371 yards (339\u00a0m), a reduction of 19 yards (17\u00a0m).[6]Table of ContentsCard of the course[edit]Round summaries[edit]First round[edit]Second round[edit]Third round[edit]Final round[edit]Scorecard[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Card of the course[edit]HoleNameYardsParHoleNameYardsPar1Burn376410Bobby Jones38642Dyke453411High (In)17433Cartgate (Out)397412Heathery (In)34844Ginger Beer480413Hole O’Cross (In)46545Hole O’Cross (Out)568514Long61856Heathery (Out)412415Cartgate (In)45547High (Out)371416Corner of the Dyke42348Short175317Road49549End352418Tom Morris3574Out3,58436In3,72136Total7,30572       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Previous lengths of the course for The Open Championship (since 1950):[1]2005: 7,279 yards (6,656\u00a0m)2000: 7,115 yards (6,506\u00a0m)1995: 6,933 yards (6,340\u00a0m)1990: 6,933 yards (6,340\u00a0m)1984: 6,933 yards (6,340\u00a0m)1978: 6,933 yards (6,340\u00a0m)1970: 6,957 yards (6,361\u00a0m)1964: 6,926 yards (6,333\u00a0m)1960: 6,936 yards (6,342\u00a0m)1955: 6,936 yards (6,342\u00a0m)Each year, around two-thirds of The Open Championship field consists of players that are fully exempt from qualifying for the Open.

Rory McIlroy tied a major championship record with 63 (\u22129), only the eighth 63 in Open Championship history, and the 22nd in major championship history.[13] He was bogey-free and played his last ten holes at \u22128. Louis Oosthuizen was alone in second with 65.A big surprise of the first round was John Daly; the 1995 champion at St Andrews was at 66, in five-way tie for third with Bradley Dredge, Peter Hanson, Andrew Coltart, and Steven Tiley. Tiger Woods, who switched from his old Scotty Cameron putter to a Nike Method putter that week, headlined the group of nine tied for eighth at 67 (\u22125). That group included PGA Champion Yang Yong-eun and Lee Westwood. 2009 champion Stewart Cink and U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell were at 71, tied for 58th, and Masters champion Phil Mickelson struggled with the putter to a 73.[14]Second round[edit]Friday, 16 July 2010Saturday, 17 July 2010Mark Calcavecchia had the earliest tee time and took advantage of the morning conditions to shoot a 67 (\u22125) for a 137 (\u22127). Louis Oosthuizen played in the next group and also shot 67 to move into first place at 132 (\u221212), five shots ahead of Calcavecchia. Phil Mickelson posted a 71 to get to even-par 144. However, the conditions were significantly worse in the afternoon. Rory McIlroy followed his 63 (\u22129) in the opening round with 80 (+8) for 143 (\u22121).[15]Jason Dufner’s ball would not stay still on the 7th green due to the gale force 40\u00a0mph (65\u00a0km\/h) winds, which caused play to be suspended for 66 minutes. Winds also caused backup on the course, and some rounds took 7\u00bd hours. Tiger Woods had a bad start with bogeys on the first two holes, and despite three-putting four times that day, grinded out to shoot 73 (+1) on Friday for 140 (\u22124), 8 shots behind the leader. Notable players who missed the cut were Ernie Els, P\u00e1draig Harrington, Tom Watson, and Jim Furyk.[16]Amateurs: Jeong (\u22126), Chun (+3), An (+7), Abbott (+8), Dubuisson (+9), Hatton (+11), Canter (+16).Due to darkness, the second round was suspended at 9:43 pm BST and completed on Saturday morning.Third round[edit]Saturday, 17 July 2010Mark Calcavecchia quickly fell out of contention when he played his first five holes in seven over par. Tiger Woods struggled with the flat stick, with 35 putts for the round and ten three-putts through 54 holes. Phil Mickelson mounted a charge at four-under-par through 13 holes, but fell back with a double-bogey on 16. Louis Oosthuizen’s consistency never wavered, and he ended the day with a four-shot lead over Paul Casey, who shot a five-under 67.Final round[edit]Sunday, 18 July 2010Louis Oosthuizen shot a final round 71 to win his first major championship by seven shots.  He played consistently all day, including an eagle at the drivable 9th hole. Paul Casey was in contention until a triple bogey at the 12th, which Oosthuizen birdied.[17] Earlier in the day, Rickie Fowler shot 67 to move into a tie for 14th, despite opening the championship with a 79. Tiger Woods switched back to his old putter with improved results, but poor ball striking left him with an even-par 72. Phil Mickelson made a charge early in his round, but poor putting led to him a 75. Rory McIlroy bounced back well from his 80 on Friday and finished tied for third.Amateurs: Jeong (\u22124).Complete Final LeaderboardScorecard[edit]Cumulative tournament scores, relative to parEagleBirdieBogeyDouble bogeyTriple bogey+Source:[18]References[edit]External links[edit]Coordinates: 56\u00b020\u203235\u2033N 2\u00b048\u203211\u2033W\ufeff \/ \ufeff56.343\u00b0N 2.803\u00b0W\ufeff \/ 56.343; -2.803     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki14\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki14\/2010-open-championship-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"2010 Open Championship – Wikipedia"}}]}]
