Description: Vintage 1984 Golf Press Kit Green Bag Holder 66th PGA Tournament Shoal Creek Country Club. Fine condition - see photos. Rare item, you will never find another I am certain. This was only given to sports reporters who covered the event.From the estate of Patriot Ledger newspaper sports reporter C Roger Barry who passed away in 2012 at age 92. C.Roger Barry was a former Quincy Patriot Ledger sportswriter and golf editor. Born in Boston, Roger was raised and educated in Weymouth. He was a resident of Braintree for more than 50 years. Fed by a life long love of sports and being a gifted writer, Roger enjoyed a 52-year career as a sportswriter for the Ledger, covering baseball, football, hockey, basketball, the BAA marathon, schoolboy sports and golf. He was also a Golf Editor for many years. He would often chuckle at some of the labels given to him by columnists such as Mr. Golf and The Godfather of Golf. The 1984 PGA Championship was the 66th PGA Championship, held August 16–19 at Shoal Creek Golf and Country Club in Birmingham, Alabama. Lee Trevino shot four rounds in the 60s to win his second PGA Championship and sixth and final major title, four strokes ahead of runners-up Gary Player and Lanny Wadkins.Trevino, age 44, was tied for the lead after two rounds at 137 (−7) with Player and Wadkins. Despite a double bogey at 18 on Saturday, Trevino carded a 67 (−5) for 204 (−12) and a one shot lead. A 69 on Sunday led to a total of 273 (−15), which set a new record for under-par by five strokes for the championship, which was later broken by Steve Elkington in 1995.Shoal Creek hosted the PGA Championship again in 1990 and the Regions Tradition, a senior major championship, from 2011 through 2015.
