In the 1930’s and 1940’s, when women’s amateur golf was the premiere women’s golf circuit, some players became stars. One was Marion Miley, who won just about every major amateur event available to her. But her career came to a tragic end in the middle of the night in the Lexington Country Club apartments where she lived with her mother. In the decades that followed, Marion’s story has been forgotten. Keely Levins dives into Marion’s story and how author Beverly Bell set out to ensure Marion’s story would be remembered forever.
