@Athersmike It wasn't Doug Sanders who chucked his putter in the air. It was Jack Nicklaus after winning the 1970 Open (that Sanders had earlier blown with that famous missed putt) and nearly took poor old Doug's head off in the process!

Magnificent send-off for PA great Terry Cooper today. Coops’ family did him proud, with a little help from a generation or two of his rugby writing and broadcast mates #Jacks

[AP McCoy @AP_McCoy]

Congratulations to my great friend @Ruby_Walsh on an amazing career. He was like Lionel Messi on a horse. What he had is uncoachable unteachable just better than everyone else.
