Jean van de Velde enjoys a visit to The Open Zone at Carnoustie and reflects on his infamous final-hole collapse in 1999. Can he get it right at the 18th this time?
Jean van de Velde rolled back the years in The Open Zone as he relived his meltdown at Carnoustie in The 128th Open in 1999.
The Frenchman held a three-shot lead heading to the final hole only to card a triple-bogey seven, which left him in a play-off in which he eventually lost out to Paul Lawrie.
Sky Sports' Nick Dougherty and David Howell took Van de Velde back 19 years in time and there was plenty of humour as they discussed that final hole.
