George Washington Classic (LPGA Tour Golf Tournament)
First played: 1970
Last played: 1975
The tournament's short roster of six winners includes three Hall-of-Famers: Judy Rankin, Sandra Haynie and Carol Mann. Mann set the tournament record with a winning score of 206 in the final year of the event, but it was Haynie who was the real story of the George Washington Classic. She won once and set the tournament's margin-of-victory record (five strokes). But she was also runner-up in 1970, 1971 and 1972.
The first four (out of the six times total) the tournament was played, the winning margin was just one stroke.
Also known as: George Washington Ladies Classic, George Washington Golf Classic.
