2021 April Golf Memorabilia Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 4/12/2021
1946 PGA Championship at Portland CC Contestant Badge - Ben Hogan Winner
A necessity for any collection is this, a 1946 PGA Championship players badge from Ben Hogan's first Major Victory. His next major victory wouldn't come until 2 years later at that year's PGA Championship. After the infamous near fatal accident in early 1949, 'Bantam Ben' would not participate in another PGA Championship until 1960! The grueling schedule of 36 holes a day over the course of 5 days was too much for his body to handle. For such a high valued piece of golf history to be in near mint condition is a treasure to behold. A letter of from PGA Historian Emeritus Bob Denney will accompany this lot.
For the current 2021 April Auction, please remember to read the rules page, and all initial bids must be placed by 9pm ET Sunday, April 11th. The auction ending rules will change beginning with the next auction. Thank you for your support. - The Golf Auction
