Johnny McDermott was the first and to this day the youngest golfer to win the U.S. Open, in 1911. In the movie, ʺThe Greatest Game Ever Played,ʺ there is a 1913 U.S. Open scene where McDermott is particularly obnoxious. According to a great article at http://www.foxsportssouth.com/fox-sports-networks/story/Youngest-US-Open-champs-health-problems-?blockID=909587&feedID=3703, the actual occurrence was at this resort, Shawnee-on-the-Delaware. McDermott eventually spent most of his life institutionalized at Norristown State Hospital (which is also on Cyber Plaque).
