In 1950, Ben Hogan hit his famous one iron on the 18th hole and forced a playoff in the U.S.
He did this only a few weeks after shattering his pelvis in a car accident.
He would go on to win the playoff.
Every Golf expert will know that this is Ben Hogan playing the
18th hole at at Merion, Pennsylvania.
I was motivated to paint him because I am an admirer of
Mr. Hogan. I find him to be a very interesting person and he has as
inspiring story. He passed away in 1997.
From his struggle to become a great player, to his overcoming of a
horrible car crash, to his long lasting marriage (62 years) to
his wife Valerie, his life story is fascinating.
