Doug Sanders' 1971 U.S. Open

Low Scorer Qualifying Medal

THE DOUG SANDERS COLLECTION

          Offered in this auction are some exceptional pieces of memorabilia from the personal collection of former PGA Tour star Doug Sanders. Doug Sanders won 20 times on the PGA Tour, and finished in the top 4 in every Major Championship. Despite his overwhelming success as a professional golfer, Mr. Sanders is notoriously remembered for missing a 3-foot putt to win the 1970 Open Championship at St. Andrews - a tournament that Jack Nicklaus would go on to win by one stroke in a playoff the next day.

          Offered here is Doug Sanders' personal low scorer medal from sectional qualifying of the 1971 U.S. Open. This impressive sterling silver USGA piece comes with a letter of authenticity from Doug Sanders himself.
