Both easily beat the course record on the Syracuse course, and Ritson was only 12 seconds off the Cornell course record set two years ago by Harvard's Jim Baker...

Fifty-one of these events were important enough to warrant...

All through the 1920s, fans argued whether Hagen was better than Amateur Champion Bobby Jones. In 1926, Hagen challenged Jones to a 72-hole match-and beat him twelve up, eleven holes...
