The Real Grand Slam of Golf

This is the story of the Grand Slam in Golf (US Amateur, US Open, British Amateur, and British Open) and the only golfer to ever win it. The Modern Slam ( Masters, US Open, British Open, and US PGA ) was conceived by the press when becomeing a pro golfer became an honerable profession and amateur golf went by the wayside. The story of Bobby Jones' 1930 Grand Slam is more exiting than any modern day golf story. Jones, who quit the competive game at 28 with 13 major championships is the greatest golfer who ever lived. Tiger is really chasing Jones not Nicklaus.
