The Arkansas State Golf Association is saddened to share the passing of two Arkansas Golf Hall of Famers, Jack Jordan and Ed Harris - men whose names are woven into the fabric of golf in our state.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (March 10, 2026) - Jack Jordan, who passed away Feb. 25 at the age of 89, was inducted into the Arkansas Golf Hall of Fame in 2006. A standout athlete at Arkansas A&M, now the University of Arkansas at Monticello, Jordan first picked up the game in college and went on to become one of Arkansas’ most respected senior golfers. His obituary notes that he was named ASGA Senior Player of the Year multiple times, and beyond his success on the course, he was remembered as a mentor, educator, and friend to many throughout Arkansas golf.

Ed Harris also leaves behind a remarkable legacy in Arkansas golf. Inducted into the Arkansas Golf Hall of Fame in 2000, Harris built one of the most decorated amateur careers the state has seen. He won more than 100 tournaments, captured the Little Rock City Championship seven times, earned ASGA Senior Player of the Year honors six times, and was named the ASGA’s Golfer of the Decade for the 1990s.
