Great pictures and period design.Laura Baugh In 1971, at the age of 16, defeated Beth Barry, 1 up, in the 36-hole final match to win the U.S. Women's Amateur, becoming the youngest champion in the event's 76-year history to that stage. Her physical appearance brought her considerable publicity, and for 1971 she was chosen as a Los Angeles Times Woman of the Year. In 1972 she won Golf Digest's "Most Beautiful Golfer." She made a television commercial that won a Clio Award. She was a member of the U.S. teams that won the 1972 Curtis Cup and the 1972 Espirito Santo Trophy, where Baugh placed in the individual competition. Baugh turned professional in 1973 and acquired contracts with Ford, Rolex, Suzuki, The Ladies Home Journal, Wilson Sports, Bermuda's Tourist Bureau, and Colgate. She had not yet turned 18, so was ineligible to join the LPGA Tour, but was eligible to play in Japan where she played on the LPGA of Japan Tour, where her appearance attracted interest and publicity. She earned her LPGA Tour card on her first attempt in 1973, and the very next week placed second in her tour debut. She earned 1973 Rookie of the Year honors. During her professional golf career from 1973 through 2001, Baugh earned 71 top-10 finishes, including ten runners-up. She earned significant prize money, and earnings from endorsements and outings. She has worked as a television announcer for The Golf Channel. After her LPGA Tour career, she became a member of the Legends Tour, formerly known as the Women's Senior Golf Tour, and was part of the process to make the U.S. Senior Women's Open a reality and played in the 2018 inaugural event at the Chicago Golf Club.
