Tom Vardon

Thomas Alfred Vardon (11 October 1874 – 13 October 1938) was a professional golfer from Jersey, Channel Islands, and the brother of golfing icon Harry Vardon. Tom was a superb player in his own right, often beating his legendary brother. From 1892 to 1909 he played in 18 Open Championships, finishing in the top-10 nine times. His best was a second-place finish to brother Harry in 1903 at Prestwick, and other notable placings were 1897 at Royal Liverpool Golf Club, Hoylake – 8th, 1902 at Hoylake – 5th, 1904 at Royal St George's Golf Club, Sandwich, Kent – 4th, 1907 at Hoylake – 3rd.〔Saywell 1990, p.268〕
Vardon tied for ninth place in the 1916 U.S. Open held June 29–30 at Minikahda Club in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He continued playing professional golf for four decades and became the oldest competitor at the 1930 U.S. Open at Interlachen Country Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minnesota Golf Hall of Fame Announces 2012 Inductees )
==Early life==
Vardon was born at Grouville, Jersey, Channel Islands, to Philip George Vardon (1829–1914) and Elizabeth Augustine Bouchard (1837–1920). In 1894 he married Minnie Stevenson. They had two children, Stella F. Vardon and Leonard Harry Vardon.〔 Vardon was the head professional at a number of golf clubs including Ilkley Golf Club from 1893 to 1900 and Royal St George's Golf Club.〔Saywell 1990, p.262〕
In 1909 Vardon emigrated to the United States, departing Southampton, England, aboard the SS ''Majestic'' on 16 June 1909 and arrived on 24 June 1909 in New York City. He had been given four months leave from Royal St George's to work at the Onwentsia Club; this was part of a deal that allowed Vardon to enter that year's U.S. Open held at Englewood Golf Club, New Jersey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Boston Evening Transcript - Google News Archive Search )〕 He finished his career at White Bear Yacht Club, located at White Bear Lake in Minnesota, arriving in 1913 and remaining there until his death in 1938, although he retired on pension one year before his death.
