1963 — TOO HOT TO HANDLE
Dallas Athletic Club,
Dallas, Texas
Winner: Jack Nicklaus
The Golden Bear touched down in sweltering Dallas dog-tired from his British Open voyage, but like a true champion he rallied and brought home the win, defeating Dave Ragan by two strokes. But winning his first of five PGA titles proved too hot to handle: the blazing Texas sun made the Wanamaker Trophy so burning to the touch that Nicklaus needed a towel to hold it.
