Mr. Hogan's Birthday passes

Yesterday would have been Ben Hogan's 97th birthday. Ben Hogan, unlike so many left a legacy which has outlived him. Due in large part to the golfers who have made Mr. Hogan a point of interest to so many.

One of those golfers is quite possibly the most sought after speaker in all of golf; Johnny Miller. Miller's nineteen year stint with NBC has been a series of tributes to Mr. Hogan. The desert fox enjoyed a highly successful career on tour but his contributions to golf and Mr. Hogan have since been a boon to the current generation.

With any luck Johnny Miller's message will persevere in an era when many would rather believe that Ben Hogan isn't so prolific. As long as Johnny Miller is in the booth Ben Hogan's name will be visited with the reverie he deserves.
