In the last 60 years, only 4 golfers have won the US Amateur and the US Open: Jack Nicklaus, Jerry Pate, Tiger Woods and Bryson DeChambeau.

I can't say I like the way he plays golf but it sure works. He did it his way.

Our late great Bill McBride would vehemently disagree. Pensacola's Jerry Pate is on the list. If you extend your time frame to 70 years it also includes Gene Littler.


The first post would be correct if it included the NCAA championship

Peter P. -

Thanks for catching my mistake. Corrections have been made. If extended to 70 years, it would include both Gene Littler and Arnold Palmer.

And only 2 golfers (I think :) ) have won the US Juniors and the US Open - Tiger & Johnny Miller. Of course Tiger has won the Juniors, the Am and the Open 3 times each. I feel pretty confident saying no one will ever equal that record.
