This Day in Golf History: March 14

A pair of single major winners named Bob were born on this date: 1963 Open champion Bob Charles, in New Zealand, in 1936, and 1968 Masters champion Bob Goalby in Belleville, Illinois, in 1929, east of St. Louis in southern Illinois. The uncle of Jay Haas, Goalby won 12 times on tour, most notably the 1968 Masters in the infamous disqualification of Roberto De Vicenzo. When he died three years ago, Goalby was the second oldest former winner of a major.
