My father was a caddy in the late 1940s at the Medinah Golf Course. This tragic event with his former college roommate happened at Medinah Golf Course but it was probably in the 1980s or even the 1990s.

Looks like it was actually a beer bottle. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1...h-country-club

He did not want to do the story about the 1940s Medinah Golf Course because he is reserved and does not remember that much that occurred there in the 40s. That is, that he would want to share with The Villages Daily Sun.
