Peter Toogood

Peter Toogood was an Australian amateur golfer from Tasmania, born in North Adelaide, South Australia, on 11 April 1930 and died on 5 June 2019. He won the Australian Amateur in 1954, beating his brother John in the final in a match that prompted the headline that Toogood was too good for Toogood, and he won the Tasmanian Open eight times. He was the leading amateur at the 1954 Open Championship and a member of the Australian team that won the inaugural Eisenhower Trophy in 1958 at St Andrews. He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire in 1980 and a Member of the Order of Australia in 2006, and the Australasian Golf Museum at Bothwell was founded in his memory.
