This Day in Golf History: November 24
Scott Hoch, whose career was sadly defined by his near miss in the 1989 Masters, was born on this date in 1955 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Hoch missed a short putt to win the Masters on the 10th hole, the first hole of sudden death with Nick Faldo, who then won on the next hole with a birdie. But Hoch was a multi tour-winner who twice represented the U.S. in the Ryder Cup.
