ding, ding,ding, correct!

Ben Hogan was 8-12 in playoffs. Playoffs were about the only contests where BH struggled, as his 64 tournament wins are #4 all time (to Woods, Snead and Nicklaus). Nicklaus and Palmer were the only other two double digit playoff losers (10 each). Hogan lost playoffs to ten different golfers, losing twice each to Byron Nelson and Sam Snead. Some of BH’s playoff struggles were attributed to a near fatal 1949 automobile accident, the legacy of which reduced his stamina.
