Jean Van de Velde at the 1999 British Open. Jean Van de Velde immediately made his presence felt at just the second British Open appearance of his career, with one of the most memorable second place finishes in the tournament's history. After the first two rounds, he held a one-stroke lead, which he increased to five strokes after the third round. Going into the final hole of play, Van de Velde seemed to have the championship won with a three-stroke lead. However, his third shot landed in the deep rough to the right of the green and his next shot went into the water. Jean made a disastrous triple bogey forcing a three-man playoff with Justin Leonard and eventual champion Paul Lawrie. Van de Velde has been a prominent member of the European Tour and now is a regular member of the PGA TOUR. Jean represented France on 10 World Cup of Golf and seven Alfred Dunhill Cup Teams, and holds the honor of being the only Frenchman ever to compete in the Ryder Cup. Dimensions: 16"Wx21"H.
