1963 PGA Championship Sponsor Pin #287
Jack Nicklaus at the 1963 PGA Championship not only defeated the field of top professionals and the challenging Dallas Athletic Club's Blue Course, he also overcame temperatures over 100 degrees on Championship Sunday. It was so hot when Nicklaus received the Wanamaker champions trophy he had to use a towel to protect his hands from the scalding metal. The triumph was his first of five PGA Championship wins in a career that would total 18 Major wins. This 2 1/8" diameter Sponsor Pin #287 from the Nicklaus victory is offered here in excellent condition with pin still intact
