About this listen
This podcast details the dramatic 1925 U.S. Open golf championship, highlighting the intense 36-hole playoffbetween Willie Macfarlane and Bobby Jones after they finished regulation play tied. It explores the distinct backgrounds of the two competitors, the challenging conditions including extreme heat, and the significance of the Worcester Country Club as a venue. A central theme is Bobby Jones's renowned act of integrity in calling a penalty on himself, which directly contributed to the playoff, and Willie Macfarlane's hard-earned victory as the culmination of his career. The source also places the event within the historical context of the sport in the 1920s, discussing prize money and the evolution of the tournament format.
