Sid Matthew's Bobby Jones Collection Goes To Emory
/Great news for Bobby Jones fans and researchers: Sid Matthew's incredible collection of investigation and documentation of the life, writing and times of Jones is headed to Emory University.
John Strege reports. And the reason Matthew chose Emory over the USGA was noteworthy:
"The USGA is in Far Hills, N.J. How many times have you gone there? You've got to pack a lunch and take an extra pony to get there. it's just not accessible.
"Atlanta is the Mecca. It's very accessible to everybody. The USGA is fairly proprietary about their stuff. They're not just going to throw their doors open. But Emory does that."
