[Hogan] won the next three tournaments on [Riviera] and the third of them was the U.S. Open. It became “Hogan’s Alley,” a part of the most famous partnership in sports history. Ruth-Gehrig, Dempsey-Tunney, even Notre Dame-U.S. had nothing on Hogan-Riviera. Ben knew and loved every blade of grass on it and in later years used to describe them to me in detail. JIM MURRAY

One of my favorite memorabilia purchases turns 90 next week. The 1929 LA Open program commemorated the first LA Open @riviera with its future head pro, Scotland’s Willie Hunter, gracing the cover. Also included are great club and course descriptions, early Riv photos and tourney details. There are also ads for the Ambassador Hotel and Agua Caliente resort, along with the story of how the $10,000 purse was funded by an LA Junior Chamber of Commerce $100-a-plate dinner hosted by Will Rogers (fresh off of his presidential bid). What a time! See you at Riviera next week for @genesisopen hosted by @tigerwoods @tgrliveevents @tgrfound #laopen #genesisopen2019
