Open champion Cam Smith reveals how many beers fit in Claret Jug

After winning the 150th Open at St Andrews, there was one thing on Cam Smith’s mind.

Moments after hoisting the Claret Jug on the 18th green at the Old Course, the Australian revealed his plan to find out how many beers he could fit in the historic trophy.

Now, the day after the night before, the newly-crowned major champion has revealed the results of his study.

The Aussie’s victory at St Andrews came in record-breaking fashion.

His back nine of 30 was the lowest final round in the history of the Open, while his comeback from four shots adrift is also the biggest deficit overhauled on day four at St Andrews.
