This Day in Golf History: May 7

The Greenbrier is a major component of golf resort heritage. The Greenbrier Classic from 2010 to 2019 continued that history, which goes back decades ago when it was a cherished title. On this date in 1950, Ben Hogan won the Greenbrier Pro-Am, at the golf club in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va., winning $1,250 after shooting 64-64-65-66—259.
