The Claret Jug is awarded every year to the winner of The Open Championship. This replaced the belt the winner used to win, but there are actually eight different trophies to be won in total.
The Silver Medal is the next best known of the other awards and has been handed out to the amateur with the lowest score at The Open since 1949. It is only presented to someone who has played all four rounds, so it is not handed out if no amateur has made the 36-hole cut. If one or more amateurs miss the cut, they will receive a bronze medal.
