Four Days at Troon Educational travel writers and
camera team find themselves in Scotland, at a British Open Golf Tournament.
On-camera interviews probe the ambition and motivation of sports greats
including Johnny Miller, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Tom Weiskopf, and
Jack Nicklaus. Cameo appearances by Glen Campbell, sports manager Ed
Barner, and (then-CBS) newscaster Jack Whitaker. Bill Markle made the
film, which was successfully suppressed for thirty years by one untoward
remark from Mark McCormack, the Cleveland sports mogul. Sean Costello
and Mike Forhan assisted in the project overseas. Gil Markle (then a
professional philosopher) interviewed most of the golfers.
