This Day in Golf--May 21

The inaugural Curtis Cup Match—the women’s amateur event pitting teams from the U.S. and Great Britain against each other—was just a one-day event instead of the multiple-day battle it is today. The first playing was on May 21, 1932, at Wentworth Golf Club in England. The format was three foursomes and six singles matches. The Americans won, 5½ to 3½.
