Al Geiberger begins this segment by recounting the joy of his 1966 PGA Championship win at Firestone followed hours later by the sadness brought on by the tragic loss of Tony and Betty Lema in a plane crash. He recalls his win in the 2nd edition of the Tournament Players Championship at Colonial CC (TX) over his hunting buddy, Dave Stockton. Al takes us through his incredible round of 59 in the second of the Danny Thomas Memphis Classic at Colonial CC (TN) becoming the only player in the modern era to win a non-major without a round in the 60's. Al Geiberger wraps up this episode by fondly recalling the positive influence of his parents, "FORE the Good of the Game."
