Unlikely Moody Wins U S Open in Unusual Victory
Orville Moody, a cross handed, 14 year Army veteran and Choctaw, shocks golf by winning the 69th U S Open at Cypress Creek. He closes with a 72 to finish 281, one stroke ahead of Geiberger Rosburg and Beman, after nearly missing qualification and relying on an eight iron to secure the final putt. Moody plans to play Kemper and the British Open, and his win earned him 30 000 dollars.
