Thumbnail

Frank Donovan “Sandy” Tatum Jr. was an amateur golfer, a lawyer, an administrator and a golf course architect. From 1978-80 he served as president of the USGA. During the 1974 U.S. Open, when he was chairman of the USGA’s competition committee, he uttered one of the most famous quotes in golf: “We’re not trying to humiliate the best players in the world. We’re simply trying to identify who they are.”

Eleven-time NBA champion, two-time NCAA champ, Olympic gold-medalist and Mentor program board member Bill Russell sits down with Rex Hoggard in this For the Record to discuss the importance of guiding today’s youth, his winning ways and golf.
