1934 PGA Championship at Park CC Contestant Badge - Paul Runyan Winner - Rare
This offering contains the 1934 PGA Championship at Park Country Club Contestant Badge. Rich in color, this badge was given out to contestants during the tournament week in Williamsville, New York at the Park Country Club. Paul Runyan completed the first of two PGA Championship victories, conquering Craig Wood in 38 hole finals of the then match-play event. A Check for $1,000 was made out to Paul Runyan for his success at the tournament.
Runyan, in his Hall of Fame career, won 29 times on the PGA Tour highlighted by PGA Championship wins in 1934 and '38. His game was so acclaimed in the 1930's that he was paired with Bobby Jones in 1934 for the first 36 holes of the first Masters. This badge is in near mint condition and is stamped qualifier.
