Actual 1999 U.S. Open Caddie Yardage Book

The Justin Leonard Collection

        In this auction, we are very pleased to offer some incredible pieces of golf memorabilia from Justin Leonard's longtime caddie, Bob Riefke. When we first spoke with Riefke, he shared with us a treasure trove of memorabilia obtained during his many years "inside the ropes." Now, Riefke has decided that these great items will be better appreciated by collectors across the world.

        Caddie Yardage Books have long been a favorite of collectors, but very few significant tournament-used yardage books have ever been offered publicly for sale. Presented here is an actual yardage book from the 1999 U.S. Open.  This yardage book was used by Justin Leonard and his caddie Bob Riefke at the 1999 U.S. Open and it contains lots of personal notes of Pinehurst No. 2.

         This yardage book comes with a letter of authenticity from Justin Leonard's longtime caddie Bob Riefke.
