7. 1955 Jack Fleck vs. Ben Hogan
287-287 (Fleck won playoff, 69-72)
A funny thing happened to Ben Hogan on his way to a record fifth U.S. Open win — unknown Jack Fleck threw a pie in his face. Not literally, of course, but Hogan was wearing egg after finishing the fourth round and tossing his ball to USGA domo Joe Dey, exclaiming, "This is for Golf House" (the USGA museum). But Fleck finished birdie-par-par-birdie on an Olympic Club course where 7-over-par 287 was low score. Apparently undaunted, Fleck threw a 69 at Hogan to take the playoff, in what many consider the greatest upset in golf history.
