Vintage Seve... What an AMAZING recovery from the BUSHES!

In 1991 the great Seve Ballesteros had a torrid time on the 16th at Royal Birkdale.

During what some might say in a calamitous turn of events the three-time Open champion found himself in the bushes looking to play himself out of trouble.

This a moment from The Open archives you won't want to miss!

Did anyone else notice that Seve was wearing two hats throughout all of this? The man was iconic in more ways than one.

In an alternate universe i would have loved to see a presenter take seve, phile, tiger and harrington to difficult spots on the golf course and ask them how they would escape. Be a great youtube series or a featurette for open week

People forget how ridiculous Seve was at putting! It wasn’t just bush whacking?

Not from the bushes since he took relief.
