There are so many inaccuracies in the movie that you could fill the page up. One or two others, though - Ouimet had not quit golfing. He played in, and won the Massachusetts Amateur that year and did qualify for the US Amateur, losing in the quarter finals. the reason he initially turned down the offer to play in the US Open was that he had just been to the US Amateur and did not want to take more time off work. When his boss OKed it, he agreed to play. According to accounts, the playoff was played in rainy conditions, not sunny skies like the movie showed. Vardon also had a moustache. So who knows how many other liberties Disney took?
