Orville Moody 1933 - 2008

Orville Moody has died. Moody won 21 professional events, all but one on the Senior Tour. The one exception was his 1969 US Open victory. That victory is more significant because it was the last time a player won after local and sectional qualifying.

Moody won the US Open just 15 months after ending his 14 year Army Career. His nickname on tour was “Sarge.”
