Notable Notes: This was the last of Jim Barnes' four wins in majors, it was the last Open played at Prestwick, and it was the last Open played over just two days (36 holes per day). ... Macdonald Smith led Barnes and Archie Compston by five strokes entering the final round, but Smith — who never won a major despite more than 20 PGA Tour wins — ballooned to an 82. ... Barnes outplayed Compston, 74-75, to win by a stroke. ... Ted Ray, tied for second, and J.H. Taylor, tied for seventh, both posted their final Top 10s in an Open.
