2008 Hall of Fame Inductees Shirley Dommers and Lois Drafke

In 2008 we honor two inaugural inductees into the IWGA Hall of Fame. These two women have impacted golf for women in Illinois both as exceptional players and role models to the young women who were to follow in their footsteps. From 1953 to 1974 two individuals dominated Illinois Women’s Golf Association tournaments. In 1953, the State Amateur Championship was won by 15 year old Lois Drafke and for the next 20 years either Lois Drafke or Shirley Dommers won this tournament 14 times.
