## Caption

You may have missed it, but yesterday was a historic anniversary in Texas Golf history.

April 21 was the day that Lee Elder captured his first PGA TOUR victory. 

A native Texan who developed his game during segregated times while caddying, Elder made history in 1975 at Augusta National, which had been an all-white tournament until he received an invitation after winning the Monsanto Open the previous year.
