Susie Maxwell Berning - Part 1 (The Early Years and the 1965 Western Open)

FORE the Good of the Game

World Golf Hall of Fame member Susie Maxwell Berning begins her story as a young girl raising horses in Oklahoma City. When her young colt Joker got loose and ran through the neighboring golf course, her life changed forever. Smitten by golf after seeing a Patty Berg clinic at Lincoln Park Golf Course, she sold her horses and bought a car so she could drive to the golf course. Susie played on the men's golf team at Oklahoma City University "chaperoned" by the legendary basketball coach Abe Lemons. Listen in as she recounts her initial experiences on tour including a major win at Beverly CC and a Lacoste shirt-burning party at the 1967 Women's U.S. Open. Susie Maxwell Berning shares the early years and wins, "FORE the Good of the Game."
