  • The final day of the Canadian Open at Oakville yesterday produced some exciting moments, one of which was provided by Jack Nicklaus. The Golden Bear was at six-under par on the 18th hole and tied for the lead with John Cook and Johnny Miller. He had a chance to go seven under with his final putt but as these expressions show, he missed. Cook and Miller both went on to record seven-under-par totals and Cook won the Open in a playoff.
