SunSport tracked down the man who made Spieth look clean cut for the final day as he tried to win back-to-back Opens.

Friyad Salami, 33, was shaken when the world famous American golfer strolled into the Magic Barbers 2 shop on Carnoustie High Street and asked for a haircut.

Salami said: “I thought it was Spieth, but I was too shy to ask because I was not quite sure. Instead I just decided to treat him like any other customer. We did not even talk about the golf!

“He gave me the £20 for a £9 haircut – it’s the biggest tip I have ever had. Normally we only ever get £1 or £2 as a tip.

“I know more about Tiger Woods but I was desperate for Spieth to win and everyone in the world to see the haircut I gave him.

“If he ever wants to come back, he is guaranteed a free haircut and shave for life.”

Spieth, 24, joked that his hair had been shaved a little too short and high on the side of his head for his liking and described it as a ‘very British haircut’.

Salami points out that his most famous customer just needs to understand Scottish fashion a bit more.

He said: “He asked for a number three or number four on the sides on back, and just a little tidy up on top.

“He has said that I cut it higher than he is used to, but he’s from America and this is how we do it in the Scottish summer.”
