Amy Alcott
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amy Alcott (born February 22, 1956 in Kansas City, Missouri) is an American professional golfer.
Alcott wasted little time establishing herself on the competitive scene, winning the 1973 United States Girls Junior Amateur Golf Championship. She turned pro in 1975 while she was still a teenager and promptly won the Orange Blossom Classic in just her third start. By the end of the season, she had earned Rookie of the Year honors.
Alcott won twenty-nine events on the LPGA Tour, including five major championships. She finished in the top ten on the money list eleven times between 1976 and 1988, with her best finishes being back to back third places in 1979 and 1980.
Alcott was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1999.
