Charles Sifford was the first African American to play on the PGA tour. He put up with a lot of hatred and hostility when he played in the 1960s, but he still played, winning one tournament in his PGA career and one on the seniors’ tour. Yesterday, Sifford was deservedly inducted into the golf Hall of Fame, also becoming the first African American in its ranks.

Congratulations to Mr. Sifford, as well as to Isao Aoki, Tom Kite, and Canadian amateur Marlene Stewart Streit.
