Colonial Trivia: Who Am I?

Hogan's Alley was the site of two of my over one dozen PGA Tour wins.  I liked playing in Texas.  In addition to Colonial, two of my major championship victories took in Texas, had a win in Dallas,  plus the Lone Star State was home to the Senior Tour event victory that was arguably more important than anything I did on the PGA Tour.

Other clues to who I am:

  • My first PGA Tour victory was the US Open
  • My next to last PGA Tour victory was another major championship
  • A son of mine won on the PGA Tour

I loved the game of golf til the day I died.  Appropriately enough, a golf course was the site of where my fatal heart attack took place

Yes, I'm in the Golf Hall of Fame

Who am I?

Julius Boros

He’s also the oldest player to have ever won a major, winning the ’68 PGA at 48 years of age.
