Bernard Darwin on Harry Vardon

Famed sportswriter Bernard Darwin, said of Harry Vardon: “He did what only a very great player can do – he raised the general conception of what was possible in his game and forced his nearest rivals to attain a higher standard by attempting that which they would have otherwise deemed impossible. He has left a name affectionately regarded and an ineffaceable mark on the game.”
