On July 7th, 1950, Bobby Locke shot a final round of 68 to set a championship record aggregate of 279 - four strokes inside the previous mark - in the British Open at Troon. The event was also notable for a sparkling final day by Fred Daly, who started a third round of 69 with three threes and then carded a 66 in the afternoon. It gave the 1947 champion a share of third place with Dai Rees. Roberto de Vicenzo was runner-up.
