The 1957 PGA Championship winner, Lionel Hebert, was born on this date in 1928 in Lafayette, Louisiana. His older brother, Jay, won the PGA in 1960. Also, the 1939 Titleholders Championship of Women's Golf ended on this date at Augusta Country Club with Minnesota’s Patty Berg winning for the third straight time, two shots up on Dorothy Kirby. And on this date in 1963, Arnold Palmer had a rare disqualification at the Crosby Nat’l Pro-Am for a Round-3 offense.
