This Day in Golf History: March 29

On this date in 1992, Davis Love III won the Players Championship by four strokes ahead of four players in second. Also, the LPGA Tour’s ANA Inspiration, now the Chevron Championship but more widely remembered as the Dinah Shore with sponsors Colgate and Nabisco, 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.
