Between 1951-1961 Dixon won more than 50 tournaments throughout the USA as a professional golfer on the United Golf Association Tour. Mr. Dixon was inducted into the National Black Hall of Fame in 1998 and honored with the 2012 African American Golfers Hall of Fame’s ‘Legacy’ Award. He remains active as a member of the Sunshine State Amateur Golf Association and recently honored with the “Spirit of Bartow Award.”
