FORE the Good of the Game

World Golf Hall of Fame member JoAnne Carner looks back on her early years on Tour including several of her 43 LPGA titles including the 1969 Burdine's Invitational that she won as an amateur. Professional success came quickly in her first year on Tour in 1970 and then validation came with a wire-to-wire win at the 1971 Women's U.S. Open at Kahkwa Club over the great Kathy Whitworth where JoAnne became the first player to win three different USGA championships. Fourteen wins later she cashes in at the 1976 U.S. Women's Open at Rolling Green CC and prevails for her eighth USGA title, second only to Bobby Jones and later Tiger Woods with nine.
