NORTON, Mass. -- It was Wednesday afternoon this week when a few visitors to Pleasant Valley Country Club in nearby Sutton, Massachusetts, were greeted in the pro shop by longtime head professional Paul Parajeckas. He immediately started regaling them with tales of the good ol' days, back when the PGA Tour held an annual event there for 30 years. Then he brought up the most famous of all those tales.
"You know that Maltbie story?" asked Parajeckas. "That happened here."
Of course the visitors knew the Maltbie story. Everybody knows the Maltbie story, or at least some variation of what happened so many years ago.
