John Shippen & Oscar Bunn: American Firsts in Golf

By Allison Singh

John Shippen and Oscar Bunn were two of the most talented golfers of their time. In the summer of 1896, the two friends and fellow caddies found themselves in the middle of an international incident when the U.S. Open came to Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. What happened next speaks to the possibility, but ultimate limit, of talent in a segregated society.
