This Day in Golf History--May 30
Counting Walter Hagen’s four in a row and Jim Barnes winning two in a row with two off years in the middle, winning the PGA consecutively has happened nine times. That includes Brooks Koepka this month. On today’s date in 1937, Denny Shute won his second in a row, at the Pittsburgh Field Club, defeating Harold McSpaden in 37 holes. Shute had won the previous year at Pinehurst, 3 and 2 over Jimmy Thomson.
