This Day in Golf History: May 6

One year into LPGA Tour history in 1951, Patty Berg won the Pebble Beach Weathervane tournament at Pebble Beach Country Club on this date. She shot 152 in the two-day event to take home the $750 first-place prize, four shots ahead of Babe Zaharias. On this date in 1936, the United States and Great Britain teams tied at 4.5 points each in the third Curtis Cup Match, held on the King’s Course at Gleneagles, Scotland. The American team featured Berg and Glenna Collett Vare.
