Bantam Ben
Hogan is correct 1951 and 1953. In 1953 Ben Hogan won 5 out of the 6 tournaments he entered and the only reason he didn't get a shot at the Grand Slam of Golf is that year, 1953, the British Open (Hogan won it) and the PGA Championship overlapped - both were played in early July.
The next golfer to win three majors in the same year was Tiger Woods in the year 2000.
