Butch Harmon is confident he could win a tussle against Monty in a light-hearted moment from #AskButch at The Open.
Butch Harmon is confident he could win a tussle against Monty in a light-hearted moment from #AskButch at The Open.

The #AskButch segment has once again proved very popular during our coverage of The Open, and Butch Harmon's answer to one of the more unusual questions provided one of the funniest moments of the week.

One viewer tweeted in to ask Butch if he thought he could take down Colin Montgomerie in a fight, and he was adamant that he would emerge victorious despite being 74 years of age.

So we thought we'd put it to the vote, who do you think would come out on top? Are you #TeamButch or #TeamMonty?

We should stress that this is entirely a bit of fun, and we're not about to put Butch and Monty in the ring together! Even though Butch's answer was very bullish, and also very funny, we can assure you the pair actually get on well and make a great team in the commentary box or in the studio.

Cast your vote below, and don't miss our extensive final-round coverage of The 146th Open at Royal Birkdale. And you can also catch all the key action in Monday's "How The Open Was Won" from 7pm on Sky Sports The Open.
