Nancy would often swap trophies for icy replicas

 

On this day, in 1969, a 12 year old Nancy Lopez won the New Mexico Women's Amateur, crushing 23 year old Mary Bryan 10 and 8 in the final match.


Nancy Lopez was born in California in 1957 and has enjoyed one of the most successful careers ever in women's golf. In her rookie season she won nine LPGA events and was named Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year. In total she has 48 LPGA wins to her name and was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1987 at the age of 30.


Also on this day, in 1949, the first episode of Road Runner was aired, The Fast and The Furry-ous. Vin Diesel starred in a popular cinema remake some years later.


Meanwhile, in 1955, Juan Peron is deposed as leader of Argentina, probably for all that singing.


And it's Eemil Sillanpää! As they say in Finland, to;  Radio Two favourite Katie Melua (23), actress turned poker player Jennifer Tilly (49) and big Nev, Neville Southall (49.) Today was also the day, that in 1977,  Marc Bolan died in a car crash.
