Forgive my dates! I had to look up the below pro's name, memory ain't too good.
Sometime in the 60's I was following Phil Rodgers. He hit his tee shot in the bunker on 18. Another place that is now entirely different. Spectators could often get close enough to overhear player and caddy exchanges. Phil looked at the lie, looked at the back pin placement, then asked his caddy, "What club will hit those people behind the green?" The caddy replied, "A five iron.' Phil said, "Give me a five iron."
Gotta know how to get a member bounce!
This story is quintessential Phil Rodgers, a worthy addition to the Fairway Folklore surrounding this colorful pretender to the throne that ultimately would go to Jack Nicklaus.
