This Day in Golf History: May 21

The first Curtis Cup Match between women amateur teams from the U.S. and Great Britain was held on this date in 1932 at Wentworth Golf Club’s East Course, in Surrey, England. Just a one-day event, the highlight was seeing each side’s star go against the other: Glenna Collett Vare for the U.S. and Joyce Wethered for G.B. The Americans won overall, 5.5 to 3.5, but in the marquee matches, Wethered beat Vare, 6 and 4, in singles, but Vare and partner Opal Hill beat Wethered and Wanda Morgan, 1 up, in Foursomes.
