You've probably never heard of me, but there was a time when my name was in every newspaper in the country. And even for a while after, people remembered John Pine very well. But most of those folks are no longer around.

In 1941, six months before Pearl Harbor, a small-town pro from Iowa named John Pine teed off in the United States Open. His wife had just left him, his car tires had been slashed, and he had exactly one penny in his bank account. And of those few who bothered to watch his opening drive, no one other than his sickly caddie and his eleven-year-old foster daughter knew or cared anything about him. But in what would be the last tournament he would ever play, John Pine would take a place-a now-forgotten, but extraordinary place-in golf history.
