LONDON (AP) - The British PGA broke with 104 years of tradition Monday, appointing a woman as its captain for the first time.

Beverly Lewis, who is also a qualified referee with the Royal & Ancient Club, will be an ambassador for the PGA and represent the membership at all official functions and major golf events, including the four majors.


''This is an amazing honour and I couldn't have been more surprised than if someone had asked me to be queen,'' said Lewis, who is a founder member of the British women's PGA and one of the first women professionals to gain PGA membership.


''I am delighted to be in a position to champion women's golf, as well as having the opportunity to make a difference within the professional circles of the game.''

OK somebody get us a picture....I'll bet she looks like a prune.

Good show to the Brits for appointing her though..a tip of the hat...

[Rockford35]

Yep, she's smoking hot. Loop, she's all yours.

Not as bad as I thought. I imagined someone shriveled and wrinkled from years in the wind and sun.

I think she needs to get with Hal Sutton for lessons in effective leadership.

We yanks can only hope.

She's hot since she still got her teeth. I bet her sweater is sheep wool. Rock, you interested?

Not unless she has hooves.

Nothing says loving like an undulate.

Looking at that pic, I think it's possible.
