This Day in Golf--March 29

The LPGA Tour’s ANA Inspiration, the year’s first major, is this weekend at Mission Hills in Rancho Mirage, Calif. For years known as the Dinah Shore with sponsors Colgate and Nabisco, the ANA was won on March 29, 1992, by Dottie Pepper (Mochrie at the time). Pepper, then 26, birdied the 18th hole to tie Juli Inkster, and then won on the first hole of sudden-death, No. 10, with a par-4 to Inkster’s bogey. Pepper, who had been runner-up in 1991, also won the tournament in 1999 when she set the tournament record of 19-under 269.
