This Day in Golf History--September 3

On this date in 1973, Billy Casper finished a 20-under-par 264 week to win the Sammy Davis Jr. Greater Hartford Open in Wethersfield, Connecticut, winning the tournament for the fourth time and winning his 50th PGA Tour event. Casper’s final round was a 64. He made a 15-foot birdie putt on No. 17 to pull ahead and hold off Bruce Devlin by one shot.
