The end of Goal!, the official film of the 1966 World Cup, scripted by Brian Glanville, is strangely elegiac. Rather than focusing on England's celebrations, we see a cleaner slowly sweeping the terraces the morning after the final, pushing the tattered rosettes and discarded newspapers into a pile. This, it says, is the aftermath of glory, the grim low after the high, the sense, perhaps, that this great achievement after which you strived might not be worth all that much after all.

David Duval felt something similar after winning the Open in 2001, precipitating a slump from which he has never emerged - although his top-three finish at the US Open this year perhaps suggests he is on the rise again. He is 100.0 to win the Open which begins at Turnberry on July 16.

The same spirit haunts the end of tournaments, even for journalists.
