Longtime ESPN personality and host of the program Up Close Prime Time, Roy Firestone offers his opinion on many of the most memorable moments in golf history. Broken into three chapters, this video first explores several of the great rivalries in golf. Firestone, in his normal slow drawl, comments on the fierce competition between Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, Nick Faldo and Curtis Strange and the tense duo of David Duval and Tiger Woods. These rivalries have been duely noted in the press. The second section of the video shows many of the clutch shots and come from behind efforts that have catapulted golfers into the winner's circle. Lee Trevino's win at the 1972 British Open, Tom Kite's unlikely win at the 1992 U.S. Open and Betsy Kings 1987 Dinah Shore Classic victory are just a few of the many examples of "clutch play" shown. The third section focuses on what golfers seem to enjoy most, the miracle shot. The clips are all taken from the professional tour and show some rather amazing eagles, holes in one, chips and long puts. Some viewers may not appreciate Firestone's tendency to over inflate a golf moment, many will still find the subject matter worth viewing. Ed Atkinson, Rovi
