This Day in Golf History--July 12

Of many historic events on today’s date…such as Mickey Wright winning her fourth U.S. Women’s Open in 1964…on this date in 1930, Bobby Jones won a record-tying fourth U.S. Open, at Interlachen, two strokes ahead of Macdonald Smith. This was part of Jones’ epic Grand Slam season. Also on this date Tony Jacklin won the 1969 Open and Jack Nicklaus the 1970 Open.
