Winner of 35 LPGA tournaments, Patty Sheehan looks back on the middle of her professional career that included an earthquake and heartbreak. Patty lost her home in the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake in the San Francisco area but used that loss as incentive to come back strong, which she sure did in 1990, winning five times but suffering a meltdown at the U.S. Open that year, losing an 11-shot lead to Betsy King when she became hypoglycemic on a hot 36-hole final day in Atlanta. Redemption came two years later when she won the 1992 U.S. Open at Oakmont, where she birdied the final two holes to get into a playoff with her good friend Juli Inkster and prevailed in the 18-hole playoff after leaving her clubs at her rental home. Patty Sheehan continues her life story, “FORE the Good of the Game.”
