One of the best yet most underrated player of all time.

A great great player. 'Wish I could've seen him play in person.

[@myleshancock9164]

My dad always spoke so highly of Mr. Casper, as a player and a person. One of the true greats and gentlemen of the game.

9 consecutive one-putts?! That’s gotta be a US Open record, and at Winged Foot no less. Casper truly is one of the absolute greatest players to ever live

[@chrisbrimhall1613]

Mr Casper is very rarely mentioned anymore….but 3 majors and 50 PGA wins……that’s rare air

[@RealJackHQ]

If you win at Winged Foot, you are truly a legend. Billy Casper is that and more. 😃

Laying up on a Par 3? I would never consider it. Incredible discipline

[@Daniel-ln6jn]

He says his name will always be on the trophy, even better its on there twice

[@RK831]

The green he three-putted was the 10th. I don't know which round, but I know it was the 10th.

Casper won $12,000 and Rham won $1,250,000 bet Casper wishes he was 60 years younger.
