King of Clubs by Jim Ducibella
It began as a Depression-era, winner-take-all challenge between two Chicago stockbrokers, one of them a flamboyant daredevil with more guts than money and the other with more money than sense. It erupted into a national news story, one never told in its entirety-until King of Clubs: The Great Golf Marathon of 1938.
After twenty-nine years as a sportswriter, mostly with the Virginian-Pilot, Jim Ducibella was inducted into the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in April 2010. During his career, Ducibella covered more than two hundred professional and amateur golf tournaments. Now a Web writer for the College of William & Mary, he provides columns for The Virginia Golfer magazine and is regularly featured in Boomer magazine. A contributor to Sports Illustrated, GolfWorld, Pro Football Weekly, and The Met Golfer, among others, he is the author of Par Excellence: A Celebration of Virginia Golf (2000). He lives in Williamsburg, Virginia.
