...or maybe it's Junior? Check out the "Championship Belt". Because no one could beat him, he subsequently claimed the belt as personal property, never to be awarded again. Died of a "broken heart" at 24, soon after his wife and child passed away during childbirth. Senior never believed it...saying "If he died of a broken heart, how come I'm still here?". He may have rattled off 10 or more Opens, but ended up with 4...just like the "old man".
