This Day in Golf History: February 14

Mary Kathryn (Mickey) Wright, the greatest woman golfer of all time, was born on this date in San Diego in 1935. A member of the World Golf Hall of Fame, she won four U.S. Women’s Opens and 82 LPGA Tour titles. Wright died nearly four years ago on February 17, 2020, but in her lifetime she was shown a lot of love as her swing was referred to by many, including Ben Hogan, as the finest swing all-time, by a man or a woman.
