The all-time leader in U.S. Tour wins with 88 LPGA victories, Kathy Whitworth takes us down the home stretch of her career from the 1970's forward beginning with her win in the 1971 LPGA Championship at Pleasant Valley CC. Her sixth and final major win came at the 1975 LPGA Championship at Pine Ridge Golf Course. In 1981 she was the first woman to pass the $1M mark in career earnings and in 1982 she tied and then beat Mickey Wright's record of 82 wins. Kathy fondly recalls her experience as the Captain of the inaugural Solheim Cup Team in 1990 and looks back on many of the great players that she enjoyed competing with. Truly a remarkable career and an exceptional lady, Kathy Whitworth concludes her life story, "FORE the Good of the Game."
