| After a lapse of 10 years because of World War II, the Curtis Cup series was resumed in May with the United States winning, 6 ½ to 2 ½, for its fourth victory in the five matches to date. The Americans held a 2- 1 edge after the foursomes and then won four singles matches and halved another.
One of the high points came when Miss Louise Suggs, the American Champion, climaxed an uphill battle by winning the final two holes to halve her match with Miss Philomena Garvey. America's highly regarded partners in foursomes, Miss Suggs and Miss Grace Lenczyk, were upset by Miss Jacqueline Gordon and Miss Jean Donald, 3 and 2. The Match was played over two days at the Birkdale Golf Club, Birkdale, England. |
