    Saw him play in his prime, and then afterward. His 1964 Open win proved that anything in life is possible, no matter how low you fall. Wonderful story!

    I always thought he was Kenny the know it all ass.
    Was I wrong...Seriously wrong.
    Truly one of the greatest gentleman champions golf has ever known.
    Rest in Peace Mr. Venturi, Rest in Peace.

      As a 19 year old motorcycle courier for AP Newsphotos, I had the priviledge of covering this spectacular achievement in 100+degree temperatures. I took the photo negatives back to AP to wire this amazing story around the world. A truly unforgettable experience.

    His US open at Congressional was possibly the greatest ever played.

    Can you show that one instruction clip on chipping where on his first try he chips in a very difficult shot. He can't believe it went in, yet he does it so nonchalantly
