Frederick Robson (25 April 1885 – 3 November 1952) was an English professional golfer who played in the early 20th century. Robson was a frequent competitor in the Open Championship. His best performance was a tie for second with Aubrey Boomer in the 1927 Open Championship.[1]

Early life

Robson was born in Shotton, Flintshire, Wales, on 25 April 1885.

Golf career

Robson was involved in a dispute about which team he would represent in the 1909 England–Scotland Professional Match. He apparently had a Scottish father and English mother and was initially selected for both sides. Having learnt his golf in England he eventually chose to represent that country.[2][3] A meeting of the PGA on the following Monday accepted the principle that the player could choose in such situations.[4] However this account is contradicted by the 1891 census of Wales which records that his father was born in Birmingham and mother in Holywell.[5]

1927 Open Championship

The 1927 Open Championship was the 62nd Open Championship, held 13–15 July at the Old Course at St Andrews in St Andrews, Scotland. Amateur Bobby Jones successfully defended the title with a dominating six stroke victory, the second of his three victories at the Open Championship. Robson carded rounds of 76-72-69-74=291 and finished in second place, tied with Aubrey Boomer. He and Boomer each won £62 10s in prize money.[1]

Robson also played on the three Great Britain Ryder Cup teams in 1927, 1929, and 1931.

Death and legacy

Robson died on 3 November 1952 in Croydon, London, England, at the age of 67.[6][7] Robson is best remembered for his numerous starts in the Open Championship, the best of which was a second-place finish in 1927. He was also a Ryder Cup player.
