Hagen and Sarazen. Like Palmer and Nicklaus in the roaring 20's. Walter Hagen could play any sport, pitch righty or lefty, and was a quintessential symbol of his glorious times. Sarazen joins me after the Hagen bio with a Walter Hagen caddie story about Skip Daniels, from 1932 at the Open Sarazen won with his new sand wedge.

Sam Snead hit a draw because a slice on his father's property would go into a muddy ditch. Sam never went two weeks his whole life without playing golf or hitting balls. He taught me to hit 50 yard pitches in my bare feet in 1974, when I spent Monday through Saturday night alone with him on the range at The LA Open. He was 62 and took Dave Stockton to the 72nd hole. This is a string of different moments with Sam chatting about Hogan and the golf swing.

Babe Zaharias and Patty Berg jumpstarted the LPGA with 11 other adventurous, ambitious, great players in 1950. Here is their story and my chat with Patty almost 50 years later.

The 1937 Ohio River flooding left one million Americans homeless. Babe Zaharias and Patty Berg, Helen Hicks and Jean Bauer held an exhibition in Miami to raise money for those in need. They were all in their 20's!
