Scores added for past tournaments

In an effort to match the format for the men's US Open article, I've added a Score section. Some of the information particularly for the 1970s and earlier may not be entirely accurate because source material is scarce regarding the par for courses played. I'm still working on this. I hope other people will fill in and correct where there are mistakes. Crunch 00:33, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What happened to his attempt to get into the US Women's Open a few years ago? That's definitely worth a section because it was a funny story a few years ago. A man trying to bully alot of Women by winning their Golf Championship. Except he would have probably lost and embarrassed himself worse than he would be winning. What came of that? 205.166.61.142 14:18, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think his lawyers told him he didn't have a chance with the "must be born female" rule, so he gave up on it. A google search shows that he's playing on mini-tours now (the Gateway Tour as of March 2007). Since he never even entered the qualifying tournament, it's probably not significant enough for this article. If he actually attempted to qualify, that would be another matter.

hey

Does wikipedia have a page on the 2007 womens us championship??????? it has a page on the mens????????? Does wikipedia have any pages about the us womens championship???????????? The Mens have detailed pages about them with summarys and shit. Anyway this golf championship is one of the biggest in womens soprts. SO HOW COME WIKIPEDIA DOESN'T HAVE A FUCKING PAGE ON THEM. FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!!!!!!

1954 US Open Championship =

According to both NYTimes.com and ESPN.com Babe Zaharias won the 1954 US Open by +12 strokes vice +3. It makes we wonder if that the 1948 results which reports she won by +12 is not incorrect as well?

Requested move 2 July 2020

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 08:36, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

United States Women's Open Championship (golf) → U.S. Women's Open – Per WP:COMMONNAME. It is overwhelmingly the most commonly used name for the tournament, even by the USGA (as can be seen from the logos). WP:PTOPIC is already established with U.S. Women's Open currently redirecting here. By extension, this request includes moving all individual tournaments (e.g. 2020 U.S. Women's Open Golf Championship → 2020 U.S. Women's Open) and the eponymous category Category:United States Women's Open Championship (golf). _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 09:45, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support this change as U.S. Women's Open is the more commonly used name. In doing this we should ensure that any searches for United States Women's Open Championship (golf) or tournament pages (e.g. 2020 U.S. Women's Open Golf Championship) are redirected.Tracland (talk) 11:40, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
