This Day in Golf History: July 10

One of the most lauded performances in Open Championship history concluded on this date in 1953 when Ben Hogan won at Carnoustie in the only Open he played. He won by four shots over four players, including future five-time winner Peter Thomson. Earlier in the year he had won the Masters and U.S. Open.
