1906 British Open Winner and Scores
The 1906 British Open was the 46th time this major was played.
Winner: James Braid, 300
Where it was played: Muirfield in Gullane, East Lothian, Scotland
Tournament dates: June 13-15, 1906
Leader after first round: John Graham Jr., 71
Leader after second round: J.H. Taylor, 149
Leader after third round: J.H. Taylor, 224
Notable Notes: Defending champ James Braid trailed leader J.H. Taylor by three strokes entering the final round. But in that final round, only two golfers went lower than 77. Braid (73) was one of them, Taylor (80) was not. ... It was the third of Braid's five Open victories. ... This was the last of three times that the three members of the so-called "Great Triumvirate" finished 1-2-3 in an Open. Here, it was Braid, Taylor and Harry Vardon in third place.
