LPGA legend Wright wins USGA award

The U.S. sanctioning body's highest honor, awarded since 1955, will be presented on February 6 at the USGA's annual meeting in Pinehurst, North Carolina.

“It's very nice to be remembered,” said Wright. “It means a lot that they think enough of me to give me the award.”

Wright, 74, won 13 major women's titles and over a 12-month span in 1961 and 1962 held all four LPGA major titles, the only person with that distinction.
