Bobby Jones is on the short list of greatest golfers of all time. He is tied for seventh on the list of most major championships won, with seven. He both founded and helped designed the famed Augusta National Golf Club, and co-founded the Masters tournament played there annually. Offered is the only Sports Illustrated where Jones graced the cover. The portrait image of Jones depicts the golf legend in his green jacket, with the fabled Augusta clubhouse looming in the background. The copy is graded a CGC 8.5, with just one example graded higher in the magazine grader’s population report.
