Dave Musgrove on Seve Ballesteros’ first Open victory

Earlier in 2017 popular caddie Dave Musgrove sadly passed away. Here he is looking back fondly on Seve Ballesteros’ first Open Championship triumph, which came while Dave was on the bag for the five-time major champion

Golf has not been and never will be the same again beyond this era. There will never be another like Seve Ballesteros. He may not have the best record, but no one was innately as talented as he was. I heard Greg Norman say one time on television that of all the golfers he saw anywhere in the world, he never saw anyone like Seve. It is a shame that some people have to get old, and unfortunately, pass away. Seve is one of those people. RIP,

Seve is still the greatest. How golf has changed, after watching Bryson victory at Winged Foot and then watching Seve it's a whole different game

My hero, loved him! Reason I took up golf in the a genius. Hale Irwin said he just knew where to miss in 79, didn't realise at the time but he said he was watching a genius at to mellowed over the years as he got older and that comment below is beyond disgusting and has been reported

Caddies llke Dave and Billy Foster are pure gold to listen to, much more interesting than most players.

Dave supplied the locals with balls and equipment for years.

Highly motivated, performance orientated people are often inclined to anti social behavior. Seve was no exception.
