Rory McIlroy will join the golfing immortals by winning the 150th Open at St Andrews this weekend, according to Thomas Bjorn.
Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus and Seve Ballesteros are among the legends to have lifted the Claret Jug at the Home of Golf and former Ryder Cup captain Bjorn believes it's a tremendous opportunity to write his name into history. He said: “This is definitely a chance for Rory to make history. A lot of the greats have won at St Andrews, including Jack and Tiger.
"Rory, if he doesn’t put himself in that category, he certainly puts himself up there among the greats of the game. If he could win an Open at St Andrews, I think it will mean more to him than the other things he has achieved in the world. He will know that will make him immortal to many.”
