Carolyn Cudone
The GSWGA is saddened by the recent death of Founding and Honorary Member, Carolyn Cudone. A long-time resident of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Mrs. Cudone was a nationally renowned golfer and the recipient of many distinguished golf awards and honors. She won numerous tournaments held throughout the Eastern Seaboard, most notably the North and South Women’s Amateur, and the Women’s Eastern Championship, as well as countless GSWGA, WMGA, WNJGA, and State Titles. Nationally, she won a record five consecutive United States Golf Association Senior Women’s Championships beginning in 1968. Her international accolades included selections to the 1956 U.S. Curtis Cup team, and serving as the victorious captain in 1970. Mrs. Cudone was inducted into the South Carolina Golf Hall of Fame in 1979, and the Carolyn Cudone Intercollegiate Championship is named in her honor. Most recently, she received the WMGA’s Judy Bell Award, and just this year was named the recipient of the prestigious Winnie Palmer Award by the Metropolitan Golf Writers Association.
The GSWGA is very proud of all of her accomplishments, and is grateful for her contributions to our organization.
