  • John Joseph Burke Jr. (born January 29, 1923) is an American retired professional golfer who was most prominent in the 1950s. The son of a professional golfer, Jack Burke Sr., he won two major titles, both in 1956, the Masters and PGA Championship, and is a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame. Burke won 16 PGA Tour events between 1950 and 1963. He won four times in 1950 and five times in 1952, including four in consecutive weeks in February and March. He had not won since 1953 when he won the 1956 Masters, coming from eight strokes behind in the final round to overtake leader Ken Venturi, an amateur, who took 80. Later in 1956 he won the PGA Championship, beating Ted Kroll 3&2 in the final. His last tour win came in 1963, just before his 40th birthday. Burke was in five successive American Ryder Cup teams from 1951 to 1959, serving as playing captain in 1957, when Great Britain won for the first time since 1933, and as the non-playing captain in 1973. He had a successful playing record, winning 7 of his 8 matches, only losing his singles match in 1957. In 1957, Burke and Jimmy Demaret founded Champions Golf Club in Houston. The club has hosted a number of important events including the 1967 Ryder Cup and the 1969 U.S. Open. (en)
  • Jack Burke Jr, född 29 januari 1923 är en amerikansk golfspelare. Burke var en av de stora spelarna på 1950-talet. Han var en av de mest framstående spelarna i 1951 års Ryder Cup då han var med och vann två matcher. Han deltog även 1953 och 1955 och 1957 var han kapten för det amerikanska Ryder Cup-laget. Han var även icke spelande kapten för laget 1973. 1952 vann han fyra PGA-tävlingar i rad vilket bara tre andra spelare har klarat av (Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan och Tiger Woods). Totalt vann han 15 PGA-tävlingar under sin karriär inklusive 1956 års The Masters Tournament och PGA Championship. Hans kanske mest berömda match var när han förlorade i en nio timmar lång kvartsfinal över 40 hål mot Cary Middlecoff i PGA Championship 1955. Han utsågs till PGA Player of the Year 1956. Han kom fyra i PGA Championship 1958. En handledsskada tvingade honom att sluta tävla i början av 1960-talet.Efter att han dragit sig tillbaka från tävlingsgolfen grundade han tillsammans med Jimmy Demaret Houston Champions Golf Club där flera stora tävlingar har spelats genom åren, bland annat Ryder Cup 1967 och US Open 1969.
