9. Henrik Stenson/Phil Mickelson showdown
It wasn’t as epic as the famous Duel in the Sun between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus at Turnberry in 1977, but it was close. At the 2016 Open Championship, Stenson and Mickelson separated themselves from the field and then engaged in a heavyweight contest. Stenson won his first major championship and became Sweden’s first ever male major champion.
