This Day in Golf History: March 1

Standout lifelong amateur Ed Updegraff turns 100 today! Born in Boone, Iowa, Updegraff, a urologist by trade, did not win the U.S. Amateur, but he won several prominent events such as the Western Amateur twice and the U.S. Senior Amateur in 1981. A member of the Iowa and Arizona state golf halls of fame, his greatest honor was receiving the Bob Jones Award in 1999. He tied for 44th in the 1966 Masters.
