- Maurice_Flitcroft abstract "Maurice Gerald Flitcroft (23 November 1929 – 24 March 2007) was a British golfer and hoaxer. Flitcroft became notorious after hitting a score of 121 in the qualifying competition for the 1976 Open Championship, the highest score recorded at the Open Championship and by a "professional golfer". Subsequently, Flitcroft gained significant media attention, being commonly referred to as "the world's worst golfer". Following the 1976 Open, the rules were changed to prevent Flitcroft from attempting to enter. Nevertheless, he also regularly attempted to enter the Open, and several other golf competitions, under his own name and under pseudonyms such as Gene Paceky (as in paycheque), Gerald Hoppy and James Beau Jolley. Flitcroft was married to Jean (died 2002) by whom he had two sons - one of whom caddied for him.He is the subject of a biography, "The Phantom of the Open", by Scott Murray and Simon Farnaby, published by Yellow Jersey Press in July 2010. In his obituary, The Daily Telegraph commented thus:Maurice Flitcroft ...was a chain-smoking shipyard crane- operator from Barrow-in-Furness whose persistent attempts to gatecrash the British Open golf championship produced a sense of humour failure among members of the golfing establishment.↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 ↑".
