Along with Gene Sarazen's
momentous double eagle and
the stupendous accomplish
ments of Ben Hogan. Byron
Nelson, Jimmy Demaret and
Sam Snead, they'll talk as long
as golf is played about the
rounds played by Ken Ventura
and Billy Joe Patton on a
drizzling, bone-chilling day.
AS a result of the sub-par
heroics Of these playing part

the brink Of greatness, and the
other a 35-year-old amateur

DOGGY on the 14th.
But 1t is not too far-fetched
to say that despite Venturi's
unforgettable finish of three

three holes that will be best
remembered.

Patton, who almost stole the
thunder from Snead and Ho-

turned what he termed a
quite eventful" round into a
