Gary Player's Personal Gary Player Oversize GPX-Ti162 Lob Wedge with Letter
36"
Pulled from the bag of The Black Knight, career grand slam champion Gary Player is Gary Player's Personal Gary Player Oversize GPX-Ti162 Lob Wedge with Letter. The sword was his club and Player's battles were the golf tournaments, more than 165 worldwide in which Gary Player was victorious in. The well-traveled larger-than-life global ambassador of the game was small in stature, often wearing all black while paving the way for international golf stars to come. The Big 3 member was the youngest to join the modern-day career grand slam club after the 1965 US Open, an exclusive club that he would be only the second member of at the time. South African Gary Player's first of three Masters Tournament wins in 1961 would enter the record books also as the first international winner of the Augusta, Georgia contest. He would contest it a record 52 times, in a career that notched 9 major wins. Include a "sword" from The Black Knight in your collection with the winning bid on this lot. A signed letter of provenance from the family accompanies this lot.
