This Day in Golf--Sept. 22

The most U.S. Opens any golfer has won is four, and four is the number of golfers who have done it. The first was Willie Anderson, and he won his fourth on this date in 1905, winning by two over Alex Smith at the Myopia Hunt Club in Hamilton, Mass. The other players to win four U.S. Opens, and the year they won their fourth, are Bobby Jones (1930), Ben Hogan (1953) and Jack Nicklaus (1980).
