The previously oldest winner of the Open Championship was ol'Tom Morris at age 49.

Ol' Tom was 46 when he won the Open. And the oldest player ever to win any major championship was Julius Boros, winning the PGA in '68 at age 48.

I have to pull for my son to win, (he's in sixth place after today).

Good ole Stewart. One of my favorite players on tour. You raised a fine son. I'll be pulling for him. ...after Watson ;)

Thanks for the correction. I heard the announcer on tv today say Ol' Tom was 49 when he won his last Open. Got it wrong - not that unusual.

I can't blame you for pulling for Tom tomorrow. I sure have to hope he does himself proud!
