CHAMPIONS GOLF CLUB history
CHAMPIONS GOLF CLUB company history timeline
Flashy dressing Jimmy Demaret played in 13 events in 1940 and won six of them, including his first of three Masters titles.
Jackie Burke will always be remembered for his string of four consecutive victories ( Texas Open, Houston Open, Baton Rouge Open, and St Petersburg Open) in 1952.
In 1952 he won the Vardon Trophy with a stroke average of 70.54.
In late 1956 almost everything was "go". The land was bought, partnerships had been formed, building architects and land planners were employed, and Demaret's old friend from Hermann Park days (Ralph Plummer) was to build the course.
In 1956, he won both the Masters and the PGA Championship and was named Player of the Year.
He co-founded the world-famous Champions Golf Club with life-long friend Jack Burke and lured the United States Open there in 1969.
The eldest son of Texas trailblazing club pro Jack Burke, Sr. played on five Ryder Cup teams and was twice a captain, non-playing captain in 1973.
He is generally acknowledged as the Father of the Senior Tour and he and Fred Raphael conceived Legends of Golf in 1978 at Onion Creek a course designed and co-owned by Demaret himself.
Jimmy was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1983.
When Demaret died in 1983, Burke became the sole owner.
Started in 1988, the PGA Distinguished Service Award honors outstanding individuals who dis play leadership and humanitarian qualities including integrity, sportsmanship and a passion for the game of golf.
