2 Which British boxer was, for a short period in 1986, the undisputed Welterweight champion of the world?

Ten out of ten, guys

I've asked each one of those in the past year in my local in Highgate with a prize of up to �1000 available. It's not been won yet.

[Prescott]

The only problem with 7 is the question.

Birkdale has hosted the Open 9 times - not 8 as stated !!

[craft1948]

seajay...............I'm a laydee.....

[SeaJayPea]

Prescott, if I'm wrong, I stand corrected. The years I have, and it came from the R & A's website a year or so ago, are:

1954, 1961, 1971, 1976, 1983, 1991, 1998, 2008.

If you know different, please let me know.

Sorry, craft 1948, where I come from the word 'guys' has come to mean 'people' in recent years. It seems to have lost its male only connotations. Hope you weren't offended.

[Sgt.Rock]

craft is a little out of touch with modern terminology.

[craft1948]

certainly not offended seajay - enjoyed your thread....
