Since 1977, Things Have Changed, Except Tom Watson

In 1977:

• Jimmy Carter was the new president of the US.
  
  
• The Cold War was still being waged between the west and the USSR.
  

• People listened to music on albums, not CD's.
  
  
• Few people had VCR's and there was no such thing as DVDs.
  
  
• Nobody had a cellphone.
  
  
• Personal computers were extremely expensive and less than 5,000 people had one. Apple Computer was incorporated in 1977, IBM had yet to create the PC.
  

• The Internet would not be created for another four years.
  
  
• Saturday Night Fever was a smash hit movie.
  
  
• Disco was extremely popular.
  
  
• Luke Donald was born in July.
  
  
• Tiger Woods was one year old.
  
  
• And Tom Watson was The Open Champion at Turnberry.

Obviously, things have changed, but one thing hasn't: Tom Watson is still a great golfer and he will try to win the Open Championship for the sixth time tomorrow.
