Braid
Report
He became one of the founders of the Professional Golfers' Association (PGA) and later a president. He was also a distinguished course designer, gaining a reputation for creating well laid out courses. Notice the Stymie Measure on the side. In those days you could be blocked by another ball in front of you on the green but not if it was within 6 inches.
