AUGUSTA, Ga. (The Augusta Chronicle) -- Art Wall Jr., didn't have the charisma of Arnold Palmer, the worldliness of Gary Player or the power game of Jack Nicklaus.
Wall never became one of the game's superstars, and his quiet nature kept him in the background. Of course, playing in the shadow of the Big Three -- Palmer, Nicklaus and Player -- didn't help either.
But 61 years ago today, Wall became the only player outside of that celebrated trio to win the Masters Tournament from 1958 to 1966.
In the final round, Wall put on one of the most dazzling displays of golf ever seen at Augusta National Golf Club to win the Masters by one stroke over Cary Middlecoff.
