Middlecoff Tops Money List In 1960 Golf Rankings
The PGA compiled modern era money leaders from 1947 to 1958, with Arnold Palmer rising from 24th in 1958 to top figures by 1961. Lee Trevino, Don Ford, and Sam Snead remain high in the period, while Julius Boros, Art Wall Jr., and Don January show strong year-to-year gains. Palmer, Kroll, and King set scoring marks in various tournaments, as the PGA notes no all-time money list exists due to incomplete pre-1947 records.
