LEGENDS OF GOLF SET I CARDS
Jim Barnes (1919)
5 wins. 1 Major (The PGA Championship)
Known as "Long Jim" because of his 6-feet 4-inches in height, lanky build and long hitting, Barnes was one of the most prolific tournament winners of the first few seasons of the PGA Tour. He won 21 times on the tour in total. He led the tournmament winners list in four seasons: 1916 with three, 1917 with two, 1919 with five and 1921 with four.
Ben Hogan (1953)
5 wins. 3 Majors (The Masters, U.S. Open, The Open Championship)
The questions have been asked and debated countless times on the course, in the media and at every 19th hole: “Who are the all-time best? Who is on golf’s Mount Rushmore?” The question will never be truly answered. But you can bet your last buck that Ben Hogan will be part of the conversation. Hogan’s 1953 season becomes more impressive when you factor in that his five wins came in just six events. More important, three of them were majors, as Hogan won every major in which he competed.
Hale Irwin (1990)
2 wins. 1 Major (U.S. Open)
When it comes to the toughest competitors and most analytical course managers ever to play, Hale Irwin is near the top of the list. Irwin’s distinction was excelling when the conditions were toughest, and his three victories in the U.S. Open attest to a sharp mind, a solid game and an iron will. In 1990 at age 45, Irwin was the oldest golfer to ever win the event.
Bobby Jones (1930)
5 wins. 4 Majors (The Amatuer Championship, The Open Championship, U.S. Open, U.S. Amateur)
More than any player in history, Bobby Jones is the model of the complete golfer. Supremely gifted, Jones was also a man of vast intelligence and profound character, and he merged all three forces to become not only a singular champion, but a genuine hero. In 1930, Jones remarkably swept what were then considered golf’s four majors (The U.S. Open, The British Open, The U.S. Amateur and The British Amateur Championship).
Byron Nelson (1945)
18 wins. 1 Major (The PGA Championship)
Nelson’s streak of 11 victories in a row in 1945 is considered the least attainable record not only in golf, but in sports. His total of 18 victories that year, seven second-place finishes, his 19 consecutive rounds under 70 and his scoring average of 68.33 (and 67.45 in the fourth round) set the standard for the greatest single season in the history of the game.
Jack Nicklaus (1975)
5 wins. 2 Majors (The Masters, The PGA Championship)
Nicklaus combined tremendous physical ability with boundless mental and psychological resources. At those times when his game was in full song, he would dominate his competition. But Nicklaus’ ultimate genius was that when it wasn’t, he often found a way to win because he would almost never beat himself. In 1975, Nicklaus officially became the greatest champion of all-time. While he entered the year holding the career major record, he left no doubt who was the greatest by adding on another pair of majors at age 35.
Greg Norman (1986)
11 wins. 1 Major (The Open Championship)
Australian Greg Norman dominated the golf world for much of the 1980s and early 1990s with his aggressive game and charismatic demeanor. In 1986, Norman's 11 worldwide victories that year included four wins in Australia and two regular PGA Tour events; but 1986 is remembered for the Norman Slam or the Saturday Slam. Norman held the lead for all four majors through 54 holes. This meant he played in the final group for every major and had perhaps the best chance in history of winning the single season Grand Slam. However, the only major victory Norman earned that year was in the 1986 Open Championship at Turnberry.
Arnold Palmer (1962)
8 wins. 2 Majors (The Masters, The Open Championship)
It is not hyperbole to say that golf’s place within popular culture today is due in large part to the powerful presence of Arnold Palmer. He was an integral part of the game’s explosive growth in the 1960s. He had an everyman quality to him that appealed to the masses. His passion on the course, dramatic whirlybird follow-through and fierce animation was different from the cool intensity that the game’s greats before him had cultivated. In 1962, The King claimed his third Masters and his second British Open, a year made more impressive because Nicklaus and Gary Player were hitting their strides.
Lee Trevino (1971)
6 wins. 2 Majors (U.S. Open, The Open Championship)
Trevino rose from a three-room shack with no plumbing in east Dallas to become arguably the most consistent shotmaker the game has ever seen. Through an agile mind, a tremendous work ethic and a sense of moment that belongs to the natural performer, Trevino carved a way to the top that is unlike any other in golf history. In 1971, Trevino became the first player to pull off what is now regarded as the Open Slam, winning the U.S. Open, the Canadian Open and the British Open all in the same summer.
Tiger Woods (2006)
8 wins. 2 Majors (The Open Championship, PGA Championship)
Woods earned 58% of the potential purse money available to him in this 15-event season. Woods won the British Open and the PGA Championship (reaching 18-under-par in each event), two WGC titles and four other tournaments during a year in which his father died of cancer. Woods, at 30, won six consecutive Tour starts (seven if you include the 16-person World Challenge in November).
