Hogan had once selected his “All American golf course” for Life Magazine and included the 465-yard 12th hole at Southern Hills, a dogleg left to a green protected by water and sand. [Tommy] Bolt remembered this and couldn’t wait to remind Hogan, a man he respects more than any other—they have a good friendship—that he “whipped up” on this favorite golf hole of Ben’s, and the Southern Hills members. In the four rounds, Bolt birdied the rugged 12th three times on the way to his first major title, most spectacularly in the Saturday-morning round with a soaring 3-iron second that wound up three feet from the flag.
