Born in Brookline, MA , Ouimet became interested in golf at the young age of 11 and started to caddy at The Country Club. He went on to win the U.S. Open in 1913 and was the first non-Briton elected Captain of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews. He was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1974 along with other major influences in the game of golf. The photo is 8" by 10" with no flaws.
