Past Champions

1901
Travis successfully defended his title at the Country Club of Atlantic City, N.J. He was low qualifier with 157, a record, and defeated Walter E. Egan, of Onwentsia, 5 and 4. He played the rubber-core ball (Haskell patent) with such success that the gutta percha ball was soon discarded by players. The final round of this Championship was postponed a week because of the death of President William McKinley. |
