I received word today that Neil Regan sadly passed away yesterday. He was a dear friend to many in this community. As Winged Foot's historian, having taken over for Doug LaRue Smith, Neil was instrumental in providing Gil Hanse's team the research and images need to restore Winged Foot's East and West courses so meticulously. With the success of the 2020 US Open, I know Neil was turning his attention and efforts to the Club's centennial celebration in 2023 and it will be terrible not to have him there. He was also a frequent visitor to GB&I belonging to several clubs. Neil loved to go out late in the evening at Winged Foot and spend time putting from 80 yards out to show how the ground features used to influence running shots in the early days and he would hit putts from all over each green, particularly 1 West. He loved the game and its history, but most of all he loved his friends. He will be missed.
