SAVANNAH, Ga., April 18 (UPI) -- Hubert Green and Curtis Strange, who between them won four major tournaments, have been selected for enshrinement in the World Golf Hall of Fame in Florida.
Green, 60, was taken in the veteran's category by the World Golf Foundation Board of Directors Selection Committee. Strange was selected on the PGA Tour ballot.
Green won 19 PGA titles, including the 1977 U.S. Open and 1985 PGA Championship. He has four wins on the Champions Tour.
Strange, 52, was the first golfer since Ben Hogan in 1950 and 1951 to win consecutive U.S. Opens when he took the event in 1988 and 1989. He has 17 career PGA Tour championships.
Green and Strange will be formally inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in ceremonies scheduled for Nov. 12 in Augustine, Fla.
