Ben Hogan - Greatest Ever Golfer ?

Ranked #7,599 in Sports & Recreation, #185,189 overall

Ben Hogan

Ben Hogan. Born Dublin, Texas, 1912. Died July 25th. 1997.
Arguably, one of the greatest golfers ever to grace us with his talents on the golf course. Certainly one of the best golfers the world has ever seen.
Someone who golfers the world over loved to watch. His consistent ball hitting and ice cool temperament were the envy of all who saw him play, and he is often seen as someone whose swing we would love to be able to emulate.
His remarkable comeback after a car accident, which could have killed him, in February 1949 added to the sheer determination and will power of the man, a man who sought to be the most consistent golfer of his time.
This lens is a mainly visual tribute to Ben Hogan who went on to achieve great success in the game.

Financial resource were at a low ebb in those early years. he even had his car tyres stolen one night while staying in a motel.
