1954 US Amateur Scorecard From Program - Palmer Wins at Country Club of Detroit

1954 US Amateur Scorecard from Program - Palmer Wins at Country Club of Detroit

Here we have a scorecard taken directly from the program for the 1954 US Amateur at the Country Clubv of Detroit. The scorecard comes in great condition. No less an authority then Jack Nicklaus calls the United States Golf Association's Amateur Championship a "Major". Whether it is or not is open to debate. What is known is that the 1954 US Amateur had a fellow who was selling paint in Cleveland (Arnold Palmer) put his golf game to test over a week of gritty match play, and crowned him champion by virtue of a 1-up win in the 36 hole finals match.
