My Take
Dame Laura Davies is the kind of athlete I wish more casual fans knew about. Born in Coventry in 1963, she became England's greatest modern female golfer, topping the LPGA money list and winning the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit a record seven times across two decades. That longevity, from 1985 to 2006, is what impresses me most; dominance over twenty years is far rarer than a single hot season. The CBE and World Golf Hall of Fame honors are well earned. I find it telling that her data here is sparse, which says more about golf's coverage than about her stature.
