Laura Davies Chosen

For World Golf Hall of fame

I've been to London to see the Queen.

It’s been a big week for Laura Davies, but not on the golf course.

Laura Davies has been chosen as one of four inductees to this year’s World Golf Hall of Fame. The announcement came the day after she had been down to Buckingham Palace to receive her insignia as Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

"I can match the two awards up on a level playing field," Davies said. "They're both great honours, something I never thought about 30 years ago when I turned pro."

She is joined by Mark O'Meara, the Masters and British Open winner, two-time major champion David Graham of Australia and golf course architect A.W. Tillinghast.

Missing from the list of finalists was Ian Woosnam, a former Masters champion and world No. 1 who has 35 world wins. Better luck next year Woosie.

Laura Davies - 85 worldwide wins - put that in your pipe and smoke it!
