Nancy Lopez Selected 2011 Memorial Tournament Honoree

Dublin, Ohio - June 6, 2010 - The Captains Club today announced the 2011 Memorial Tournament would be played in honor of LPGA Hall of Famer Nancy Lopez. Born January 6, 1957 in Torrance, Calif., Lopez turned professional in 1977 and went on to amass 48 wins on the LPGA Tour, including three major championships. While she dominated the tour in creating her Hall of Fame career, it was her charisma that brought greater attention and popularity to ladies golf, defining the LPGA Tour and personality over her two decades.
