GULLANE, Scotland — A glance at the key hole Thursday in the British Open:
HOLE: No. 1
YARDAGE: 447
PAR: 4
STROKE AVERAGE: 4.56
RANK: 1st
KEY FACT: If players didn't know the opening hole at Muirfield would be tough they found out when Lloyd Saltman — playing in the first group — hit two tee shots out of bounds before making an 8. Tiger Woods nearly hit one out himself and had to take an unplayable in opening with a bogey.
