Champion Jan Stephenson's 1998 World Mixed Champion Fluted Bowl Trophy
'1998 World Mixed Challenge Champion - Jan Stephenson' proudly reads the nameplate on the base holding Stephenson's fluted glass bowl complete with subtle peacock eye designs. Stephenson was no stranger when it came to playing for her country of Australia, doing so successfully numerous times over the years including at the same World Mixed Championship with countryman David Graham in 1978. Doubling as a work of art, this was long in her trophy case and like her other trophies is now available for the first time by way of Ms. Stephenson. 10" x 9" x 8"
A signed letter of provenance from Jan Stephenson comes with this lot.
The Jan Stephenson Collection
When Jan got the call she had been waiting for, in October 2018, she was in her office at Tarpon Woods Golf Club in Palm Harbor, FL. "Congratulations Jan, you're a Hall of Famer!" her friend Nancy Lopez, who had been calling for years, exclaimed this time. It's how they both wanted those calls to go from the beginning. The World Golf Hall of Fame had officially recognized her unmeasurable impact on the game of golf. Stephenson amassed an illustrious on-course resume that boasted 43 worldwide wins, 16 LPGA Tour victories, 8 major championships including national opens spanning the globe. In 1976 Commissioner Ray Volpe even went as far as saying that the marketable winner was the new face of the LPGA; and further popularizing women's golf she did.
If there was a Hall of Fame for Hall of Famers, Stephenson would be in it. You can also find her story that started as a young champion in Australia at the age of 9. She was inducted into the: Sport Australia Hall of Fame, LPGA Legends Tour Hall of Fame (first inductee), Australia Golf Hall of Fame, Florida Sports Hall of Fame and many more. Additional golf honors, recognitions and accolades she has received include: GOLF Magazine’s “100 Heroes” during the 1988 Centennial of Golf in America celebration, 8-time Handa Cup participant, and 1974 LPGA Rookie of the Year.
Outside of competition, the highly-accomplished Stephenson with an unmatched drive has been a golf course designer, prestigious 2017 Order of Australia Medal recipient, a model/exercise enthusiast and video producer (selling over 100,000 videos), Dancing w/ the Stars (Australia) contestant in 2011, and Tarpon Woods GC owner through Jan Stephenson's Crossroads Foundation. She was honored in 2017 by the Military Order of the Purple Heart, and is passionate as a Winemaker, and Philanthropist. The Golf Auction is humbled to present The Jan Stephenson Collection.
