1924 U.S. Open (golf)
The 1924 U.S. Open was the 28th U.S. Open, held June 5–6 at Oakland Hills Country Club in Birmingham, Michigan, a suburb northwest of Detroit. Cyril Walker, a relatively unknown Englishman, defeated defending champion Bobby Jones by three strokes at the South Course.
After two rounds of play, Jones shared the lead with Bill Mehlhorn, with Walker a shot back. Walker shot a third consecutive 74 in the third round to tie Jones after 54 holes, with Mehlhorn one back. Jones and Mehlhorn, playing ahead of Walker in the final round, both played poorly, each carding 78. Leading by three on the 15th, Walker made bogey but then responded with a birdie on 16. He parred the final two holes to secure the championship.
This would mark the high point of Walker's career. He never won another significant title, and only had one other top-10 finish in a major championship. A heavy drinker, he wound up working as a dishwasher and died in a New Jersey jail cell in 1948 at the age of 56.
This was the first of nine major championships held at the South Course through 2012; six U.S. Opens and three PGA Championships.
