1986 Masters Wednesday Par 3 Ticket #01238 Signed by PING Founder Karsten Solheim
'Karsten Solheim PING' is signed in blue ballpoint pen on this 1986 Masters Wednesday Par 3 Ticket #01238. While Gary Koch won the 1986 Par 3 contest that year, the much bigger story would be one of the most historic tournament play endings in Masters history. With five different golfers having a part of the lead in the final round, Nicklaus' charge began at the 15th, going eagle, birdie, birdie, and par to claim the title. A large contributor to the game of golf and World Golf Hall of Famer Karsten Solheim passed away in 2000. Solheim born in Norway was initially known for his start up putter company run out of his garage. This grew into the Ping Company known for its heel-toe weighting and perimeter weighting. Multiple facets of this item culminate in a 1/1 piece that will be a nice addition to any Masters, PING or ticket collection. James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed this signature and their auction letter of authentication comes with this lot.
