Only six men have won the U.S. Open Golf Championship at least three times, and Hale Irwin's three titles spanned 16 years. From his 7-over par (yes) winning score 50 years ago at Winged Foot to his "victory lap" at Medinah in 1990, Hale combined a cerebral approach with a wicked long-iron game to tame the beasts put forth by the USGA. Have a listen to the World Golf Hall of Famer who never shied from golf's biggest stages.
