Dr. George F. Grant, a Dental practitioner, was the second African American graduate at Harvard University and its the first African American professor.&nbsp; Prototypes of Grant\u2019s Golf tee are on display at the USGA museum in New Jersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-sm-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>click on any
