MR. BESTOR'S TRIVIA
Answers to our Girls tennis and golf trivia are:
The PGA has four Major Golf Tournament events during the season: The Masters Tournament, The U.S. Open, The Open Championship, and The PGA Championship. The Grand Slam itinerary consists of the Australian Open, the French Open (also known as Roland Garros), Wimbledon, and the US Open. Each tournament is played over a two-week period.
At the 1997 Australian Open, Martina Hingis became the youngest-ever Grand Slam champion, winning the tournament aged 16.
Mickey Wright carded 82 Tour wins, as well as 13 major championships. Her majors included the 1958, 1960, 1961, and 1963 KPMG Women’s PGA Championships, the 1958, 1959, 1961, and 1964 U.S. Women’s Opens, the 1961 and 1962 Titleholders Championships, and the 1962, 1963, and 1966 Women’s Western Opens. Mickey was widely regarded as having one of the greatest golf swings of all time, and the Associated Press recognized Mickey as the Female Golfer of the Century.
