This Day in Golf--July 13

The U.S. Women's Open begins today at the controversial Trump site of his course in Bedminster, N.J. On this date in 1980, a Women's Open was concluding with far less drama. Amy Alcott won at Richland Country Club in Nashville, Tenn., with a score of four under par. She went into the final round with an eight-shot lead, shot a one-over-par 72 and ended up winning by nine over Hollis Stacy. It was the second of back-to-back wins for Alcott, who had won the Mayflower Classic the previous week.
