In honor of Jean Van de Velde's meltdown at the 1999 British Open at Carnoustie, GOLF.com takes a look back at some of the biggest collapses in major championship history.

T.C. Chen, 1985 U.S. Open

T.C. Chen seemed in control of the 1985 U.S. Open at Oakland Hills outside of Detroit, leading by four shots after four holes on Sunday. Then at the fifth, Chen double-hit a chip out of the rough and made an eight. He also bogeyed the final two holes and lost to Andy North.
