George Archer's pro golf career spanned five decades. His wife, Donna, and their two daughters often toured with him. They needed to be a close family. Because George had a secret they all wanted to keep.
Pro golfer George Archer hit his second shot on 15 into the drink during his final round at the 1969 Masters. Afterward, he said,"I thought I hit a real good shot. But it went in the water. And I felt like I was in the water with that ball."
"So he chose to go to Caddie Day at [the] Peninsula Club and play golf," Jamieson says."So that’s why the 6-foot-6 George Archer played golf instead of basketball." "We used to walk to my house from the bus station. And, as we were walking home, George said to me, 'I wonder what our kids will look like?' I took that as a proposal, whether he meant it or not," Donna says.
"He was always ashamed of it, which was really sad," Donna says,"because it’s not something to be ashamed of." "So I don’t know whether they really missed something, or [if] George was so highly focused he saw the line so perfectly. But, anyway, he made that putt." "And George said, 'No, I’m not gonna do that.' And I said, 'Come on, you’re the Master’s champion.' He says, 'No, no , no.' So, we argued about it for a while. And, finally, when I got to school, he finally sent me a photo. And it said, 'Study hard. George Archer.
George played pro golf for nearly 50 years, notching 43 PGA and Senior wins. He won his last Senior tournament in 2000. “Because I had known George from 1969 until the day he died. I had played golf with him, I practiced with him, I caddied for him," Jamieson says.
