Sports Fact of the Day 1/23/2007

1/23/1977:
Tom Watson edges Tony Jacklin by one stroke to win the Bing Crosby Pro-Am at Pebble Beach. Unseasonably mild temperatures for the popular "Crosby Clambake" help Watson set a tournament record of 14 under par, beating Billy Casper's old mark by four strokes. He'll become the leading money winner on the Tour and win Player of the Year honors the next four years in a row.
