Stephenson a hall of famer

AUSTRALIAN women’s golf icon Jan Stephenson has been inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame.

The 66-year-old was yesterday confirmed as an inductee for the class of 2019 in the female competitor category.

“It’s really important for Australian women to see this,” Stephenson said. “Hopefully for female junior golfers in Australia, this shows how important it is to have golf in your life ... even if you don’t make the tour it’s a wonderful sport.”
