1971 PGA Championship at PGA National GC Contestant Badge - Jack Nicklaus Winner
There are greats of the game of golf, Hall of Famers if you will. Then there is another level of achievement in the professional game and this would encompass only five players in history; Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods representing the Career Grand Slam winners with Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship titles to their names. With Jack Nicklaus' win in 1971 PGA another tier of success was established as he capped off his second Career Grand Slam with his victory. Jack would reach the feat a third time in his career, a number since equaled by Tiger Woods. This lot features a contestant badge that would present well in any golf collection, giving the pertinent information about the 1971 tournament setting on white enamel with the colors royal blue and gold accompanying it on the contestant badge. This relic of competition at golfs highest level comes directly from the PGA where it has resided for over 75 years. From the collection of PGA REACH, with a certificate of authenticity accompanying this lot.
