Charles Murray was the older of the two Murray brothers, but was by all accounts just as prolific a golfer. The long-time professional at the prestigious Royal Montreal Golf Club captured two Canadian Opens, one in 1906 and one in 1911. His brother Albert won the championship in 1908 and 1913. Some of his great moments came in the Quebec Open, where he won the title 10 times between 1909 and 1924.
