Arthur Lees
Arthur Lees (21 February 1908 – 26 March 1992) was an English professional golfer who played from the 1930s to 1960s. He was a member of four Great Britain Ryder Cup teams in the late 1940s and 1950s, and won several tournaments in Europe during his career. In addition, he spent nearly 30 years as the head professional of Sunningdale Golf Club, holding the position until he was almost 70 years old.
==Early life and career==
Lees first took up golf in his youth, serving as a caddy at Lees Hall Club in Sheffield. When the player he worked for was practising, Lees would hit balls to him with a golf club. At the age of 15, the club hired Lees as an assistant pro. He later accepted a job as a playing professional in Czechoslovakia, staying there until 1935.〔 That year, he went back to Sheffield and began working at a club in Dore and Totley.〔〔 He also found success in local tournaments in 1935, winning Yorkshire's open and pro golf championships.〔 Lees made his first of 16 appearances in The Open Championship in 1935, finishing in a tie for 41st. In 1938, Lees recorded a third-place finish in the Irish Open, having once held the lead;〔 he also finished second in a tournament in Southport. The following year, he held a share of the lead in the same tournament after three rounds, having posted scores of 69–72–74. Another 72 in the final round gave Lees the victory by two strokes over Reg Whitcombe.〔 Prior to the Second World War, he added a pair of second-place results at the Czech Open and German Open.
