This Day in Golf History: July 3

The first women's national intercollegiate golf championship was completed on this date in 1941, at the Ohio State University Golf Course, which had opened the year before. Eleanor Dudley of the University of Alabama beat 25 other players, winning the championship final, 4 and 2, over Ed Dell Wortz. The tournament was not played again until 1946 after World War II.
