This Day in Golf History--June 2

Charlie Sifford was born on this date in 1922 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Sifford was a groundbreaking African-American golfer who won twice on the PGA Tour and persevered through horrible treatment to play the game he loved and pave the way for other minorities. He won the PGA Seniors' Championship in 1975.
