A 46-year-old golfer beating competitors more than half his age in a virtual monsoon to win an Olympic gold medal a mere eight years after taking up the sport sounds like something straight out of a fairy tale.

But the almost forgotten story of little-known -Canadian insurance salesman George Lyon, a Scotch-swigging multi-sport athlete, has been salvaged thanks to golf's return to the Olympic Games in August after a 112-year absence.

Lyon, who died in 1938 at the age of 79, is the reigning Olympic champion after having defied the odds by navigating a 36-hole Monday qualifier followed by five consecutive days of 36-hole match play at the 1904 Summer Games in St. Louis.

After pulling off a massive upset over Chandler Egan Santi Cazorla Spain Jersey , who at the time was a 20-year-old reigning US amateur champion, a playful Lyon turned himself upside-down and walked on his hands to receive his Olympic medal and trophy.

"It was something we always knew about and we knew that it wasn't that highly publicized and he wasn't really that well-known," Lyon's great--grandson, Sandy Somers, told Reuters at Lyon's former golf club in Toronto.

"We started talking about it again when it was announced that golf was returning to the Olympics and it just sunk in Pedro Rodriguez Spain Jersey , he's the defending champion. It's a fabulous story."

A natural athlete

Lyon excelled at each sport he played - including baseball, rugby, football, hockey, track and field and especially cricket. At 18 Paco Alcacer Spain Jersey , he set a Canadian record in the pole vault and would go on to represent his country at cricket, scoring 238 not out for his club, which stood as a Canadian record for nearly 40 years.

He got his first taste of golf when a friend, who noticed Lyon's cricket teammates were late for practice, invited him to put down his bat and play some golf on a neighboring course.

Lyon played nine holes that day Oscar de Marcos Spain Jersey , swinging the club like a cricket bat and outdriving his friend while struggling with his short game. That experience was enough to lure Lyon into the sport and the next day he asked to become a member of the club.

"He was certainly a natural athlete," Michael Cochrane, author of Olympic Lyon: The Untold Story of the Last Gold Medal for Golf, told Reuters. "I don't think you can compare it to anything that's going on [in sports] today."

Endurance test

Two years after taking up golf as a 38-year-old, Lyon remarkably won the first of his eight Canadian amateur titles despite an unorthodox swing that a New York columnist described as akin to "using a scythe to cut wheat."

By the time he arrived at the Glen Echo Country Club in St. Louis Nolito Spain Jersey , where golf was on the Olympic program for a second time, Lyon was hardly striking fear in his younger opponents.

But the determined Canadian, who was the longest driver in the tournament, captured the imagination of many onlookers as he advanced through each grueling round and into the final where he was thought to have no chance against sweet--swinging Egan.

With both -players having to cope with driving rain on a cold and gloomy day, it was Lyon Nacho Fernandez Spain Jersey , his body hardened by years of athletic endea.
