The toughest of all credentials with the USGA's patented enamel on metal contestant badge design, this was issued at the 1939 US Amateur won by LPGA co-founder and WGHOF Betty Jameson. The following year's title defense was successful, this being the first of 2 consecutive women’s amateur championships won by Betty Jameson.
She would also become one of only 7 golfers who won both the Women’s Amateur and US Opens. In this 1939 match Jameson defeated Dorothy Kirby 3 and 2 . The tournament was held at the Wee Burn Club in Darien Connecticut. Jameson was also the medalist shooting a 74.
