Few players have ever captured the imagination of a crowd quite like Thomas Levet.

A showman simply by having fun, Levet was a rare breed of golfer who seemed to enjoy every moment of the most intense of competition. This was never more true than The Open in 2002.

With a sensational run at the title, Levet thrilled fans across the globe, and showed sportsmanship that is unheralded, even in a game as honourable as golf.
