That picture went against my preconcieved notions
of what golf was like in the 1920s. I guess that explains
it. He does look a bit like Tiger, though, no?

He is not a "black guy." His name is Johnny Golden and he's an Eastern
Europe immigrant. He later played in The Masters, so you KNOW he's not
a Black.
