Ken Venturi Signed 1964 US Open at Congressional Official Scorecard

Venturi dominated the final round at the Blue Course of Congressional Country Club, after ignoring advice from doctors to withdraw due to dehydration from the extreme heat in the nation's capital. The treatments of tea and salt tablets seemed to work for Venturi, as he would shoot a 70 Sunday to leader Tommy Jacobs' 76 to erase a two-stroke deficit for the victory. His 206 over the final three rounds of play set a new U.S. Open record, as well as his 136 over the last 36 holes. The scorecard is in great condition and Venturi signed it in black marker. .
