Wiffis Flair Tops Sea Island Golf Debut Fans Delighted
Wiffi Smith made a memorable pro debut at Sea Island, reaching the No. 2 hole with a 10 iron that cleared a tree and settled near the cup, drawing large crowds. She followed with a near-miss at No. 11 using a wedge, then earned a fifth place tie and $318.34 prize money in her first pro event. Born Margaret Chamberlane Smith in Redlands California, she has a cosmopolitan background and is poised as a popular draw for the tour. She previously starred with Curtis Cup and international opens and now links to Orange, Texas. Her coach career move notes include U.S. servicemembers and Navy ties reflected in recent athletic shifts.
