At Bellerive Country Club, Gary Player was poised to complete the career grand slam. However, a double-bogey on the 16th hole of his final round, combined with a birdie from Kel Nagle, dissolved his three-stroke cushion and forced a Monday playoff. Undeterred, Player edged Nagle the next day to capture the title. For daily updates from the United States Golf Association, please visit usga.org.

Bob Jones was halfway to winning the "Grand Slam" as he approached the U.S. Open at Interlachen Country Club. At the final hole, Jones left his approach shot 40 feet away for birdie. "As I stepped up to the putt, I confess that my most optimistic expectation was to get the thing close," Jones later wrote. He did one better, holing the putt to earn a two-stroke victory over Macdonald Smith. Ten weeks later, he won the U.S. Amateur at Merion to finish the "Slam."

Her win in the 1954 U.S. Women's Open, though, may have topped all of her previous athletic achievements, as just a month removed from colon cancer surgery, she recorded a dominant 12-stroke victory for her third win in the championship.
