“Bobby Jones: The Game of Life” opens Thursday, Feb. 12.

“Bobby Jones: The Game of Life” opens Thursday, Feb. 12, in the Schatten Gallery on Level 3 of the Robert W. Woodruff Library. The exhibition, which will remain on view through Nov. 30, 2015, is open to the public at no charge.

“The life of Bobby Jones exemplifies so much of what we value at Emory: scholarship, self-discipline and social conscience,” says MARBL director Rosemary Magee. “This exhibition invites us to immerse ourselves in his remarkable legacy.”

The exhibition’s title is a reference to one of Jones’ many notable quotes: “Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots – but you have to play the ball where it lies.”
