Johnny Miller
After winning the U.S. Junior Amateur Championship in 1964, there were high hopes from a kid from San Francisco. And after a standout career at Brigham Young University, he busted on the PGA golf scene in 1969, winning two tournaments in consecutive years. But then came the 1973 U.S. Open at which he shot what is arguably the best final round in U.S. Open Championship history, shooting an incredible 63, the lowest score ever recorded by a winner of that prestigious event. Never satisfied, he followed that history making win with 9 PGA Tour wins the following year - earning Player of the Year honors as well topping the PGA money-winning list. In 1976, Johnny would add another Major Championship - the British Open to his resume, and after retiring from competitive golf he was the first player to be elected to the PGA Tour Hall of Fame and World Golf Hall of Fame. Johnny is remembered as one of the greatest ball strikers the game has ever seen. These days, he spends his time as the Lead Golf Analyst for NBC Sports, designing courses and developments and fly-fishing when time allows. Johnny's competitive fire still burns brightly and it can be witnessed in his truly inspired golf course designs. Johnny earned 25 PGA Tour wins and over 30 worldwide. And in 1973, he shot a final round 63 to win the U.S. Open, considered to be the finest final round in a major championship, beating Arnold Palmer. And in 1976, Johnny won the British Open at Royal Birkdale. Aside from his many accomplishments on the golf course, Johnny has been nominated 3 times for an Emmy for his work on NBC as a golf analyst.
