Dorothy Campbell

Dorothy Campbell was born March 20, 1883, in North Berwick, Scotland, and raised near the town's famous links course, circumstances that set her on a path to golfing dominance at home as well as in the United States and Canada.

Between 1905 and 1912, Campbell won 10 national championships in the United Kingdom, Canada and the U.S., including the 1909 U.S. Women's Amateur in her first attempt and the '09 Ladies British Amateur, making her the first player to win both championships in the same year. She won the U.S. Women's Amateur again in 1910 and a third time in 1924 at age 41, still a record as the oldest champion.

Campbell, who also competed under her married names, Howe and Hurd, was struck by a train and died in Yemassee, S.C., December 20, 1945. She was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1978 and the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame in 1991.
