Wiffy Cox

Wilfred Hiram "Wiffy" Cox (October 27, 1896 – February 20, 1969) was an American professional golfer who played on the PGA Tour in the 1930s.

[1][2] He started in golf as a caddie at Westchester County courses and learned to play at sunrise and sunset with clubs borrowed from the pro shop.

The diminutive Cox had a hot-temper and a reputation for foul-mouthed, trash talk among his fellow players.

Like most professional golfers of his generation, Cox earned his living primarily as a club pro.

[6] He eventually landed a plum job as head pro at the Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland,[1] which he held until 1969.
