1931 U.S. Open Program

        The 1931 U.S. Open was famously left without a defending champion when Bobby Jones retired after completing the Grand Slam in 1930. Without Jones, fans attending the 1931 U.S. Open tournament were treated to one of the most spectacular golf tournaments in history. Billy Burke and George Von Elm were tied at the end of the tournament and required 72 additional holes to determine a winner - Billy Burke.

        Very few 1931 U.S. Open Programs are known. This particular program is in great condition. It contains a message and photograph from Bobby Jones on the back cover, and a story about Jones' retirement inside.
