George "Gix" Von Elm (March 20, 1901 – May 1, 1961) was an American professional golfer most noted for his amateur career. He was selected by ''Golf Digest'' as Utah's greatest amateur golfer, and in the early 1960s was named Utah Golfer of the Century. During the period 1924 to 1931, Von Elm was one of the best players in the world. In the 1920s, Von Elm worked primarily in the financial and insurance industries, and later designed several golf courses. ==Early years== Von Elm was born in Salt Lake City on March 20, 1901, to Jacob H. and Marie Demmer Von Elm. He began his golf career as a caddy on the old Salt Lake Country Club course, where he was coached by professionals Louis Berrien and Willie Lock.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The George Von Elm Story )〕 He later refined his game at the Forest Dale Golf Course. He attended West High School, where he was an outstanding athlete; he played quarterback on the football team. While a 16-year-old high school senior, he won the first of many tournaments, the 1917 Utah Amateur. He won the Utah Amateur again in 1920 and 1921. His golf skills developed quickly, and soon he was seeking competition outside the state. Von Elm attended the University of Utah, studying business, and developed his career in insurance and investments.〔(Utah Golf Association - George Von Elm profile )〕
