Morell Studios congratulates John Rahm on his victory at The Memorial Tournament last weekend.
Morell Studios created the perpetual trophy that celebrates the winners of Jack Nicklaus’ famed Memorial Tournament. This unique trophy celebrates the tournament’s past champions and is a permanent fixture in the Muirfield Village trophy case.
Jack Nicklaus came to Morell Studios founder Pat Morell with a piece of crystal and charged him with creating a unique trophy that symbolizes the excellence the tournament embodies. The Memorial perpetual trophy is made from hand turned cherry wood with solid sterling plates of each winner. The base features sterling silver plated egg and dart ornamentation with a laurel wreath at the top of the base. Morell Studios has maintained a 40-year relationship with Jack and Barbara Nicklaus.
In addition to creating The Memorial trophy, Morell Studios creates tournament awards for Muirfield Village Golf Club. This includes awards for the champion and flight winners of the Bearfoot Classic. They also created the award given to The Memorial Tournament honoree. The 2019 honoree was Judy Rankin.

ABOUT MORELL STUDIOS
When major U.S. golf organizations, the biggest names in the golf industry, corporations, chapters of The First Tee and the top golf courses in the U.S. need a premium quality award, shadow box or recognition panel, they contact Morell Studios. They reach out to us and our manufacturing team headed by Pat Morell. He is the best at manufacturing hand-crafted, museum quality awards that are unmatched in design, craftsmanship and elegance. We are dedicated to providing the best customer service in the awards industry.
Pat got his start in the golf world when he received a call from PGA National Golf Club to carve details on their new pro shop. Pat’s big break in the golf industry came when he approached Bear Lakes Country Club and offered to “do some work for them” in exchange for an introduction to Jack Nicklaus. That led to Pat handling a variety of assignments for Nicklaus and his wife, Barbara that continue to this day.
All of Morell Studio’s products are proudly manufactured, engraved and assembled in the United States at our production facility in West Palm Beach, Florida. Our design studios include an experienced team of wood workers, engravers and finishers.
