Charles L. Sifford June 2, 1922 – February 3, 2015

Charlie Sifford held the first round lead during the 1961 Greater Greensboro Open. Sifford's appearance, made possible by the support of the Greensboro Jaycees, marked the first time an African American had ever been in the field of a PGA Tour event in the South. He is seen here at the 2001 Greater Greensboro Chrysler Classic.
