Bobby Jones needed to overcome a terrible temper to succeed at golf.
Not only did Jones do that, but he actually became a model of sportsmanship and character.
Both could be seen in his play.
During the final play-off of a U.S. Open tournament, Jones’s ball ended up in the rough just off the fairway.
As he set up to play his shot, he accidentally caused his ball to move.
He immediately turned to the marshals and announced the foul.
The marshals discussed the situation among themselves.
They hadn’t seen the ball move.
Neither did anyone in the gallery.
They left it up to Jones whether to take the penalty stroke, which he did.
Later, when a marshal commended Jones on his high level of integrity, Jones replied,” Do you commend a bank robber for not robbing a bank?
No, you don’t.
This is how the game of golf should be played at all times.”
Jones lost the match that day – by one stroke.
But he didn’t lose his integrity.
His character was so well-known that the United States Golf Association’s sportsmanship award came to be named the Bob Jones Award.
