So while women and men

the WNBA continue to prosper at

There was an Everyman streak
in Hogan despite his fame. Dan
and wife June stopped at a road
side watermelon stand one hot
summer day. There sat Ben and
Valerie, who motioned to join
them at their table.
Hogan had a self-deprecating
way about how well he played the
game. The perfectionist in him
found imperfection in shots that
strayed by inches. Such is one of
Dan’s most distinct memories:
“I must have played 25 rounds
with him and I never saw him
shoot anything but 67. That was
on old, tough Colonial. He
wouldn’t think he played that
well. He’d say if you hit two or
three good shots over 18 holes it
was a good round. He really
thought it was possible to birdie
all 18 holes.
“Ben was the first who ever
said what’s been repeated a
thousand times since. You need a
repeating swing. He said,
‘Everybody chokes, so you need a
repeating swing.’”
Jenkins knew Hogan as “terri
bly shy,” instead of aloof. As
someone with a hidden yearning
perhaps influenced by hard times

‘Did you notice those door

“He studied the room as he

shots like Hogan. There was
authority to his shots. ‘Authority
