Willie Park Sr. Open Champion LTD ED Print by Arthur Weaver - Framed
In 1860 Willie Park Sr. won the inaugural British Open, then contested among the eight leading professional golfers of the day. They went around the 12 holes at Prestwick three times in one day. Playing with the gutta percha ball, which had just been invented three years earlier and flew a maximum of 190 yards, Park shot a 174. Indeed, the rivalry between Willie Park Sr. and Tom Morris Sr. kept the tournament alive through its formative years until the arrival of Young Tom Morris; in its first eight years Willie won three times and Old Tom won four. Here is the limited edition print by Arthur Weaver tastefully matted and framed to 26 1/4" x 31 1/4."
