Hall of Fame 2008

Upper Class

Introducing the newest members of the Southland Golf Hall of Fame.

BY JOEL BEERSPublished: December, 2008

The claims to fame of all but one of the inductees into the 2008 class of the Southland Golf Hall of Fame were established 40 years ago or more. But the ways they helped shape the course of the game’s development in Southern California are still being felt today.

Three are known more for their work outside of golf: Dinah Shore, Andy Williams and Glen Campbell. Each was a successful recording artist and television personality, and each played a vital role in helping establish or keep viable professional golf tournaments in Southern California.

The heyday of William Park Bell and his son, William Francis, ended with the passing of the younger Bell in 1984, but not before they designed more than 70 courses in the region.

Only Jim Flick, our sixth recipient, is still actively involved in the game. He still finds time to work with some of the game’s top players and gives lessons at La Costa Resort and Spa and TaylorMade’s Carlsbad facility.

Beyond the inductees’ individual love affairs with golf, it’s their broader impact on the game in the Southland that makes them worthy members for our seventh Hall of Fame class.
