Ben Hogan
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Ben Hogan was one of golf’s greatest athlete’s ever and had a golf swing that to this day has a tremendous effect on golf swing theory. Hogan’s swing and ball-striking ability were legendary and his gift remains renowned among golfers and aficionados.
Hogan, born on August 13, 1912 in Stephenville, Texas, turned pro in 1930 and remained active until retiring in 1971. Hogan was born within six months of the two men that he would help shape the game of golf in America with, Byron Nelson and Sam Snead.
Hogan is fourth all time with 64 PGA Tour victories and his nine major championship victories leaves him tied for fourth place all time with Gary Player. With a victory at the 1953 British Open, Hogan became just the second player to ever complete the modern slam.
