Sport: 21 Under Par

Bantam Ben Hogan had played good golf since his comeback last winter (TIME, Jan. 16), but he had yet to win a tournament. In the Greenbrier open tournament at White Sulphur Springs, W.Va. this week, he made up for all that. Ben’s winning score: a 21-under-par 259 for 72 holes, tying the alltime world record for play on a par-70 regulation course. Said Ben: “I’m picking up where I left off.”
