Book Description
Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson fills this void, offering a complete history of women in golf. He focuses on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats, and the future of the sport. Golf may well have replaced baseball as America's pastime, and the sport enjoys incredible popularity across the globe. At the professional level, women's golf continues to escalate in popularity and media attention, particularly with the dominance of LPGA champion Annika Sorenstam and the interest surrounding teenage phenom Michelle Wie. Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson's new book fills this void, focusing on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, and the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats. In addition, Hudson examines women's golf in the context of the country's history of discrimination against women. Women's golf grew in popularity after the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting the right of suffrage. Unfortunately, gender discrimination remains a reality in the world of golf in certain locales of country club golf. Nonetheless, women's golf has never been more popular. For example, the Futures Tour, where girls and young women hone their skills on the way to the LPGA, has grown to more than 300 players from 27 countries, making it the largest international developmental tour in the world. And the 2006 LPGA Tour featured 34 events with prize money nearing $50 million, the highest ever in LPGA history. In 1890, Hudson writes, the Washington Post reported that some girls are anxious to learn golf, because they are really fond of sport and exercise; others, because it gives them a chance to show off a natty suit. Those girls are now acknowledged as women—and this book shows how very far they, and their sport, have come.

Book Description
As with most sports, women were discouraged (and sometimes banned) from playing golf up until the 19th century. Still, it wasn't until the 20th century that women were able to play the game professionally. A little-known pioneer for women's golfing was Mary, Queen of Scots. In the 1550s, she commissioned the building of the golf course at St. Andrews and is even credited with coining the term "caddies." Following her reign, very few records of women golfers exist. Many Scottish and English noblemen decried women's golf was "unsuitable" or even vulgar. After over two centuries of being excluded from the game, women golfers took charge of history in the 1800s. The first known women's golf tournament was held in 1811 at the Musselburgh Golf Club in Scotland. In 1867, the prestigious club at St. Andrews opened the first women's golf organization, The Ladies Club. In the late 1800s, Isette Pearson Miller created one of the first golf handicapping systems, giving rise to the women's tee. In 1894, the first women's tournament was held in the United States, over a quarter of a century before women earned voting rights in the country. After WWII, women's golf boomed in America. In 1950, the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) was formed. In 1978, Nancy Lopez became the first female golfer to win "Rookie of the Year" and "Player of the Year" honors in one season. In 1996, Karrie Webb became the first LPGA golfer to earn one million dollars in a single season. Today, the LPGA and women's golfing continues to be respected and popular. Thanks to Mary, Queen of Scots, Isette Pearson Miller, Nancy Lopez and other women who worked to earn females a right to play, the LPGA and other women's golfing organizations continue to inspire young women.

Book Description

According to expert golfer Jane Horn, the idea that physical strength has anything to do with it is completely untrue. The problem is a misconception about how power is generated.
