The Silver Medal at The Open Championship is one of the most coveted awards in amateur golf. It's won by the leading amateur that makes the cut in the game's oldest Major and boasts an impressive list of past winners.
That list includes American Frank Stranahan, who won it four times in its first five years, and Sir Michael Bonallack. More recently it has been claimed by decorated golfers such as Tiger Woods and Rory McIIroy, who are the only golfers to win both the Silver Medal and Claret Jug.
