LADIES GOLF PIONEER
Jameson was one of the golf tour's Big Four - including Patty Berg, Louise Suggs and Babe Zaharias - who established the LPGA. In 1952, she donated the Vare Trophy - named after her idol Glenna Collett Vare - still given annually to the lowest average score. In 2000, Jameson was recognized as one of the Top 50 golf players and teachers. Her talent in being able to hit the ball straight was often compared to Ben Hogan.
