Ossie Pickworth


Horace Henry Alfred "Ossie" Pickworth was an Australian professional golfer. He won three successive Australian Open titles from 1946 to 1948, the last of which came in a playoff against Jim Ferrier.

Career

In 1918, Pickworth was born in Sydney, New South Wales.
Unlike his contemporary Jim Ferrier, who would enjoy great success on the U.S. PGA Tour, Pickworth travelled to play only infrequently, but when he did it was with some success – he played the British circuit in 1950 and finished third in the Order of Merit after winning the Irish Open, losing a three-way playoff for the Daily Mail Tournament and being runner-up in the Silver King Tournament.
Pickworth would collect a fourth Australian Open title in 1954, and was also a three-time winner of the Australian PGA Championship, in 1947, 1953 and 1955, among numerous professional victories on the Australian circuit.
