    Dec 28 2024
    I thought we could finish out the year with five short golf history stories. Five amazing stories that are likely too short to be a full length podcast. The Five Stories: 1. How the Western Golf Association Almost Convinced the USGA to Change Their Name 2. How a Newspaper Misprint May Have Cost a Golfer a Major 3. A Mental Lapse in the 1950 US Open Playoff 4. The Quirky Story of the First Playoff in Major Championship History 5. The Golfer Who Refused to Win a Major Delightful and short stories sure to entertain. Happy New Year Everyone!
