' Golfing Temperaments and Golfing Wardrobes'
Poppy
Wingate Poppy Wingate , the famous golf professional and lecturer, was born into a family in which golf was not only a hobby but a job-her father, two brothers, and an uncle all being professionals. Not very surprisingly, this young Englishwoman followed in their footsteps.
At an early age she started an apprenticeship in her brother's shop, and spent many years studying the game and everything to do with it. She is the only woman to compete in professional tournaments. For three years she ran a golf school in London, has spent considerable time designing outfits, and lectures on golf and golf clothes in different parts of the country.
