Gary Player Takes Legal Action Over Trophy Sale

News summary

Gary Player is pursuing legal action after his replica Claret Jug from the 1974 British Open was sold at auction without his consent. The trophy sold for nearly $500,000 on July 28, but Player asserts he did not authorize this sale or the previous sale of his 1974 Masters Tournament Trophy. Player claims the person responsible for safeguarding these items violated his trust by auctioning them off. Golden Age Auctions, which conducted the sales, disputes Player's statements, asserting their respect for his achievements. This is not the first time Player has had to take legal steps regarding his memorabilia, having previously sued family members over unauthorized sales. The resolution of this legal battle remains pending.
