I thought we could finish out the year with five short golf history stories.
Five amazing stories that are likely too short to be a full length podcast.

The Five Stories:

1. How the Western Golf Association Almost Convinced the USGA to Change Their Name
2. How a Newspaper Misprint May Have Cost a Golfer a Major
3. A Mental Lapse in the 1950 US Open Playoff
4. The Quirky Story of the First Playoff in Major Championship History
5. The Golfer Who Refused to Win a Major

Delightful and short stories sure to entertain. Happy New Year Everyone!
