Vardon the Golfing Genius


“Whether Harry Vardon, as a golfer, was the equal or the master of Young Tom Morris or Bobby Jones matters little as any discussion is profitless. That he was a golfing genius, something that occurs only occasionally in the history of the sport, or in the history of a sport, or in the history of art, letters or music, can never be doubted, let alone denied. As a child Mozart was able to produce lovely and inspiring tunes before ever he could have been a pupil, so Harry Vardon rose to the supremest heights in golf without a lesson. This is the way of genius, something at which we lesser mortals can only gaze in profound and hallowed wonderment" - Golf Illustrated
