Women in Play Luncheon
Golf enthusiasts of North Texas will gather on Wednesday, October 2 to celebrate the legendary women of LPGA, including Kathy Whitworth.
Whitworth holds 88 victories over a span of 23 years—more than any other professional golfer in history, male or female. A respected member of the World Golf Hall of Fame, Whitworth paved the way for other LPGA players.
Suzy Whaley, president and the first woman ever elected to serve as an officer of the PGA of America, will serve as a featured speaker. Whaley will reflect on the impact women have made in golf and the future of female engagement and participation in the sport. Lisa Cornwell, anchor of Golf Central on the Golf Channel, will serve as the emcee for the event.
