Ouimet 100 Historical and Media Guide Ouimet 100 Historical and Media Guide An overview of why Francis Ouimet’s 1913 “Cinderella” U.S. Open victory is considered possibly the most important moment in American golf history, along with how it impacted the growth of the game, Ouimet’s tremendous career record in golf, his business career and honors, Eddie Lowery’s fascinating life, and how the legacy of Ouimet and Lowery is celebrated today through The Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund. www.ouimet.org What Happened in 1913? Francis Ouimet was the son of poor immigrants who grew up across the street from The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts. He was a caddie, and largely self-taught. In 1913, he recorded what many consider the most important upset in sports history. As an unknown 20-year-old amateur, he beat the two best professionals in the world – Britons Harry Vardon and Ted Ray, in an 18-hole playoff to win the U.S. Open. The upset became worldwide news and helped kickoff a tremendous period of growth and change in golf which, in many ways, continues today. Ouimet is considered one of golf’s great pioneers, has been called the ‘father of American golf,’ is one of the original four members of the Golf Hall of Fame, and has been honored and revered for his play, as well as his sportsmanship and gentlemanly and humble personality. Why celebrate in 2013? One hundred years after Ouimet’s upset, it is looked back upon as the moment American golf was, in many ways, born. Mr. Ouimet went on to a great record in amateur golf. Media Overview/Interviews The Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund has prepared this overview of Mr. Ouimet in a simplified format which looks at many facets of his fascinating life, his impact on the game of golf, how he was honored, the life of his caddie, Eddie Lowery, and how Ouimet’s memory is preserved and young people are helped in his name today through the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund. The overview has 24 “chapters,” each with bullet points of a specific topic that relates to Francis Ouimet. We hope it is helpful to you. The Ouimet Fund can provide photos and arrange for shoots at our museum in Norton, Massachusetts. The Fund is also happy to arrange interviews with a number of people who can speak to knowing Francis Ouimet personally (including his daughter), as well as many of our successful alumni (please see page 30).

All programs are geared toward increasing awareness of Francis Ouimet and his contributions to golf, as well as further building Mr. Ouimet’s legacy, our scholarship program. Here is an overview: Centennial Events Centennial Gala: The Ouimet Fund’s Annual Banquet has been the largest golf dinner in the U.S. over the past 15 years (average attendance of 1,500). The highlight of the Banquet is always the awarding of the Francis Ouimet Award for Lifelong Contributions to Golf. Past recipients (chronologically) are Arnold Palmer, Gene Sarazen, Ben Crenshaw, Eddie Lowery (posthumously) and Ken Venturi, Former President George H.W. Bush, Chi Chi Rodriguez, Nancy Lopez, Greg Norman, Peter Jacobsen, Jack & Barbara Nicklaus, Gary Player, Tom Watson, Annika Sorenstam and Mark O’Meara. This year’s “Centennial Gala” was held at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center on May 15 – officially proclaimed “Francis Ouimet Day” in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by Governor Deval Patrick. The “honoree” of the evening was Francis Ouimet and the headline guests included Arnold Palmer, Peter Jacobsen, Mark Frost, and Bill Paxton. Golf Channel’s Rich Lerner served (once again) as master of ceremonies. Media events that day included a special *Boston Harbor golf ball shoot photo-op and media conference. Many *special videos and international video tributes were shown throughout the evening. A special highlight was a phenomenal talk by current Ouimet Scholar, *Julia McCarthy. This was the biggest single event in Ouimet history, topping the 2,100 that attended the Jack Nicklaus Banquet in 2007. The Gala was followed by a special Centennial Breakfast at The Country Club the next morning. *View videos: www.youtube.com/user/TheOuimetFund Francis Ouimet Memorial Tournament: The Ouimet Memorial began in 1968 after the death of Mr. Ouimet the previous year. It is a 54-hole amateur invitational played over three days at three different courses. It is traditionally one of the strongest tournaments of the New England golf schedule, and its past champions are a regional “who’s who.” The 2013 Ouimet Memorial Tournament will be held at Wollaston GC (July 24), Wellesley CC (July 25) and Woodland GC (July 26). Mr. Ouimet won the 1913 Mass. Amateur (his first significant win) at Wollaston GC which earned him a last-minute invitation to the historic 1913 U.S. Open. Mr. Ouimet had his final practice round before the U.S. Open at Wellesley CC, and Woodland GC was his home club, and the traditional final round site of the Ouimet Memorial. The tournament is unique in that it features Championship, Senior (Eddie Lowery) and Women’s divisions. 5 Ouimet 100 Historical & Media Guide TCC Sponsor Event: The Fund will host a special sponsor outing at TCC (Composite Course) on September 24. This event is part of a special sponsorship program the Ouimet Fund has developed for Ouimet 100. More details TBA.

  • Rothley Park Official Opening
    Rothley Park Official Opening May 1912 The official opening took place on May 1912. In an article in the Dundee Evening Telegraph on the 21st of May 1912, James Sorley wrote: “Rothley Park Golf Club is a new one, and the course has not yet been properly opened. At present we are playing over 12 holes , but we will have at our disposal in a few days 16 holes. When completed the Rothley Course will be 6000 yards, the longest hole measures about 500 yards”. The fact that the golf course consisted of only 12 holes at the time of the official opening probably explains why there was no record of an exhibition match being played at that time. It is interesting to note that in the above photograph, Braid and Vardon are both wearing golf shoes. It would be reasonable to assume that they perhaps had a drive in of some sort, with an exhibition match arranged when the 18 holes were completed. The Great Triumvirate In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a trio of players dominated professional golf to such an extent that they earned a collective nickname. “The Great Triumvirate” of Harry Vardon, J.H. Taylor and James Braid won 16 of the 21 Open Championships held between 1894 and 1914. The members of the Great Triumvirate made a very good living out of Golf Club openings and exhibition matches. The usual fee was £8 plus expenses, at a time when winning the Open Championship was worth £50. In the month of May 1913, Vardon played no less than five exhibition matches at golf clubs all around the country.

  • Te Western Amateur Championship
    Te Western Amateur Championship Records & Statistics Guide 1899-2020 for te 119t Westrn Amatur, July 26-31, 2021 Glen View Club Golf, Il. 18t editon compiled by Tim Cronin A Guide to The Guide –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Welcome to the 119th Western Amateur Championship, and the 18th edition of The Western Amateur Records & Statistics Guide, as the championship returns to the Glen View Club for the first time since the 1899 inaugural. Since that first playing, the Western Amateur has provided some of the best competition in golf, amateur or professional. This record book allows reporters covering the Western Am the ability to easily compare current achievements to those of the past. It draws on research conducted by delving into old newspaper files, and by going through the Western Golf Association’s own Western Amateur files, which date to 1949. A few years ago, a major expansion of the Guide presented complete year-by-year records and a player register for 1899 through 1955, the pre-Sweet Sixteen era, for the first time. Details on some courses and field sizes from various years remain to be found, but no other amateur championship has such an in-depth resource. Remaining holes in the listings will continue to be filled in for future editions. The section on records has been revised, and begins on page 8. This includes overall records, including a summary on how the medalist fared, and more records covering the Sweet Sixteen years. The 209-page Guide is in two sections. Part 1 includes a year-by-year summary chart, records, a special chart detailing the 37 players who have played in the Sweet Sixteen in the 63 years since its adoption in 1956 and have won a professional major championship, and a comprehensive report on the Sweet Sixteen era through both year-by-year results and a player register.
