The Women’s Open was first played in 1976 where amateur Jenny Lee Smith was champion. Jenny would go on to have a strong professional career with 10 wins on the LET. In 2023 she presented the trophy to champion Lilla Vu.
This is the last Major of the year . . . but don’t fret . . . there is still a lot of important golf left to play. We have the FedEx, the Solheim Cup, the CME Tour Championship and the Race to Dubai before we close out the year. The Open comes to Royal Lytham St Annes for the sixth time. The last time in 2018, where Georgia Hall was champion. Most of the field was at the Scottish Open getting a dose of links golf . . . after all, nothing else matters.
FUN FACT: In 2012, the first Open Champion Jenny Lee Smith discovered that she had a twin sister. Together they co-authored a book My Secret Sister about the experience.
