<p>The <b>1953 Open Championship</b> was the 82nd <a href="Open_Championship" class="mw-redirect" title="Open Championship">Open Championship</a>, held 8–10 July at the <a href="Carnoustie_Golf_Links" title="Carnoustie Golf Links">Carnoustie Golf Links</a> in <a href="Carnoustie%2C_Angus" class="mw-redirect" title="Carnoustie, Angus">Carnoustie, Angus</a>, Scotland. In his only Open Championship appearance, <a href="Ben_Hogan" title="Ben Hogan">Ben Hogan</a> prevailed by four strokes over four runners-up to win his third <a href="Men's_major_golf_championships" title="Men's major golf championships">major championship</a> of the year.<sup id="cite_ref-ghwobfst_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ghwobfst-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-htet_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-htet-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-bhwbow_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-bhwbow-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The total prize money was increased by nearly fifty per cent, from <a href="Pound_sterling" title="Pound sterling">£</a>1,700 to £2,500. The winner received £500, with £300 for second, £200 for third, £100 for fourth, £75 for fifth, £30 for next 20, and then £25 each for the remaining players. There was also a £15 prize for winning the qualification event and four £15 prizes for the lowest score in each round.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The purse of £2,500 (<a href="United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">$</a>7,000) and the winner's share of £500 ($1,400), were less than one-third that of the <a href="1953_U.S._Open_(golf)" title="1953 U.S. Open (golf)">U.S. Open</a> or <a href="1953_PGA_Championship" title="1953 PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a> in 1953.

</p><p>Qualifying took place on 6–7 July, Monday and Tuesday, with 18 holes each on the Championship and Burnside courses.<sup id="cite_ref-llqfot_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-llqfot-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The number of qualifiers was limited to a maximum of 100, and ties for 100th place would not qualify.

</p><p>Hogan, with the <a href="1953_Masters_Tournament" title="1953 Masters Tournament">Masters</a> and <a href="1953_U.S._Open_(golf)" title="1953 U.S. Open (golf)">U.S. Open</a> titles, made the trip across the <a href="Atlantic_Ocean" title="Atlantic Ocean">Atlantic</a> for the Open Championship for the only time in his career. He arrived at Carnoustie two weeks early to practice with the smaller British golf ball.

</p><p>The policy of requiring all players to qualify, the small purse, the lengthy ocean voyage, and the conflict of schedule with the <a href="1953_PGA_Championship" title="1953 PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a> kept all but a few Americans at home; only four qualified for the first round on Wednesday,<sup id="cite_ref-llqfot_8-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-llqfot-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cdthoff_9-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cdthoff-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and three made the 36-hole cut to play the final two rounds on Friday.<sup id="cite_ref-brnrees_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-brnrees-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-htrb2_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-htrb2-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-tol53brord2_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tol53brord2-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A maximum of 50 players could make the cut after 36 holes, and ties for 50th place were not included; it was at 154 (+10) and 49 advanced to the final two rounds.

</p><p>Although the field of 91 that qualified was mostly British, a strong international contingent stood ready to challenge Hogan, including fellow Americans <a href="Lloyd_Mangrum" title="Lloyd Mangrum">Lloyd Mangrum</a> and <a href="Frank_Stranahan" title="Frank Stranahan">Frank Stranahan</a>, Thomson of Australia, <a href="Antonio_Cerd%C3%A1" title="Antonio Cerdá">Antonio Cerdá</a> and <a href="Roberto_De_Vicenzo" title="Roberto De Vicenzo">Roberto De Vicenzo</a> of Argentina, and Locke of South Africa, the <a href="1952_Open_Championship" title="1952 Open Championship">defending champion</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-llqfot_8-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-llqfot-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cdthoff_9-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cdthoff-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The Open Championship was Hogan's third major title of the year, but the modern <a href="Grand_Slam_(golf)" title="Grand Slam (golf)">Grand Slam</a> was not possible, as the <a href="1953_PGA_Championship" title="1953 PGA Championship">PGA Championship</a> conflicted with the Open in <a href="1953_PGA_Championship" title="1953 PGA Championship">1953</a>; the final <a href="Match_play" title="Match play">match</a> (36 holes) of the seven-day PGA Championship was played near <a href="Detroit" title="Detroit">Detroit</a> on Tuesday, 7 July. After his automobile accident in 1949, Hogan did not enter the PGA Championship until <a href="1960_PGA_Championship" title="1960 PGA Championship">1960</a>, after it became a stroke play event. He had won the PGA Championship in <a href="1946_PGA_Championship" title="1946 PGA Championship">1946</a> and <a href="1948_PGA_Championship" title="1948 PGA Championship">1948</a> before the accident.

</p><p>Hogan did not play in another Open Championship, although he did make a lasting impression on Carnoustie. The par-5 6th hole features a split fairway, with the right side being safer but the left offering a better angle to the green. Hogan found the narrow left side in each of the four rounds, and that hole is now known as "Hogan's Alley."

</p><p>Hogan remains the only player to win the Masters, U.S. Open, and Open Championship in the same calendar year. After winning the first two majors of the year, <a href="Arnold_Palmer" title="Arnold Palmer">Arnold Palmer</a> (<a href="1960_Open_Championship" title="1960 Open Championship">1960</a>) and <a href="Jack_Nicklaus" title="Jack Nicklaus">Jack Nicklaus</a> (<a href="1972_Open_Championship" title="1972 Open Championship">1972</a>) were runners-up by a stroke. <a href="Tiger_Woods" title="Tiger Woods">Tiger Woods</a> won the Masters and U.S. Open in <a href="2002_U.S._Open_(golf)" title="2002 U.S. Open (golf)">2002</a>, but shot 81-65 on the <a href="2002_Open_Championship" title="2002 Open Championship">weekend</a> to finish six strokes back at <a href="Muirfield" title="Muirfield">Muirfield</a>, tied for 28th place. <a href="Jordan_Spieth" title="Jordan Spieth">Jordan Spieth</a> won the Masters and U.S. Open in 2015. At <a href="Old_Course_at_St_Andrews" title="Old Course at St Andrews">St. Andrews</a> in <a href="2015_Open_Championship" title="2015 Open Championship">2015</a> he bogeyed the 71st hole (Road) and missed a three-man playoff by one stroke.

</p><p>After the win, Hogan and his wife Valerie were passengers on the SS <i><a href="SS_United_States" title="SS United States">United States</a></i> westbound to <a href="New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, where he received a <a href="List_of_ticker-tape_parades_in_New_York_City" title="List of ticker-tape parades in New York City">ticker tape parade</a> down <a href="Broadway_(Manhattan)#Nicknamed_sections" title="Broadway (Manhattan)">Broadway</a> on July 21.<sup id="cite_ref-whittp_14-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-whittp-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-welcthaw_15-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-welcthaw-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p><i>Friday, 10 July 1953 (morning)</i>

</p><p>In the third round, Cerdá set a new course record with a round of 69. Thomson shot 71 to join Cerdá and Rees in 3rd. Hogan was having an excellent round until he found trouble on the 17th, but he managed to get up-and-down from a bunker and salvage a 6. He birdied the 18th to card a 70 for a share of the lead with De Vicenzo.

</p><p>In the final round, Stranahan was out first and posted a 69 and 286 total, including an eagle at the last. De Vicenzo was unable to recover after hitting his ball out of bounds at the 9th and finished at 287. Hogan chipped-in for birdie at the 5th, then followed with another birdie at 6. He opened up a two-shot lead at the 13th, saved par at the 17th, then made another birdie at 18. Battling the flu, he finished with a round of 68 to better the record that Cerdá had set that morning.<sup id="cite_ref-tol53pgard4_19-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tol53pgard4-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His total of 282 was four shots clear of the field.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
