Dave Eichelberger Signed USGA Senior Open Course Flown Hole 3 Embroidered Checkered Flag
Dave Eichelberger with a solid 4-under par 68 in the final round and a 72-hole total of 7-under 281 took a three-shot victory over three-day leader Ed Dougherty before a record crowd of 51,200 on Championship Sunday. Golf-friendly Iowa embraced the biggest sports in the state's history (contested at Des Moines Golf & Country Club) to more then 250,000 for the Championship week. Offered here is a course flag which flew at hole #3 during the United States Senior Open week (shows wear consistent with this use), and has been signed by the event's champion Dave Eichelberger. As is a long standing tradition at U.S.G.A events used course flags are often retrieved by officials and autographed by the contestants before being dispersed to high ranking officials and dignitaries. James Spence Authentication (JSA) provides a letter of authenticity which comes with this lot.
